It was originally brewed under license, but Burton Bridge obtained the trademark in 2004 to brew 'Stairway' in it's own right.
Although 5% it drinks as easily as a 4.2% so beware. Hops used are Fuggles and Goldings.

Cask@GBBF2009. Golden colour, small white head. Aroma is quite dry old wooden with some earthcellary notes as well. Also freshly cut grass mixed with some herbal notes. Flavour is vanilla, wood, fruits, some mild hebral notes as well as mild spicyness. Rather complex golden/blond ale for once.

Cask at the Burton Bridge Inn. Amber with a creamy white head; sour grainy aroma; thick and oily in the mouth, with smooth butterscotch and citrus flavours; and a citrus finish. Unusual, but extremely drinkable.
