It’s the Maris Otter base combined with crystal malt (traditionally used in dark beers) that gives this brew its distinctive red gold colour and sweet taste. The hops follow on to build on the flavour and present you with a beautiful balanced finish. Spun Gold has just been awarded Beer of the Year by our local CAMRA branch.

Bottle from Local in Carlisle. Appearance - amber with a decent head. Nose - light apple and citrus. Taste - light biscuit and more citrus. But a bit of honey at the end. This makes it less refreshing. Palate - light to medium bodied with a creamy texture and a finish that could be fresher. Overall - solid but not worth a second.

Cask, after quite a walk, at the Spinners Arms Carlisle. Pours clear amber with a thin white head. Aromas of light sulphur, light caramel. Taste is light sweet, faint herbal hop on the finish.

Cask at Pigs Ear 2014 - London. Pours clear gold with a creamy white head. The nose holds dough and nips of butter. Medium sweet flavor with pale, doughy bread, citrus, diacetyl, light bitter grains and hay. Light to medium bodied with fine carbonation. Sweet finish with creamy pale malts and citrusy meringue. So so.

Pigs Ear. Cask. Light haze on this deep gold beer. No head. Palate is light and semi dry. No carbonation. Sweet malts, trace of honey. Mild dried fruits. Light softish finish. Flat and meh!
