Marquis is a classic English session bitter.
This is the style of beer that has become the staple of British pubs and culture and Marquis makes an excellent permanent house beer.
Easy drinking and sessionable, this is a well balanced beer with subtle character to keep interest through several pints.
A light copper hue with a bitterness of 28 IBU. English hops, Fuggles and Bramling Cross hops are nicely balanced against roasted crystal malts. Fuggles imparts a hint spiciness and Bramling Cross a touch of berry fruit. The hops set together with the sweet malt grist a light raisin flavour.

Cask@GBBF 2009. Amber color, small steady off-white head. Aroma has wood, lime, some sweet fruity notes. Nutty hoppy flavor with some lemony-fruity bitterness. Aftertaste has decent bitterness. Decent body for 3.8% beer, but otherwise a bit boring.

Cask@GBBF2009. Golden colour, small beige head. Aroma is sweet malts, birchsap, mild spices and freshly cut wood. Flavour is quite much the same. Nice balanced and refreshing brew which ends in a quite big spicyness.

Cask at The Market Porter, London. Mild hop aroma. Coppery color with a whiteish head. Medium body. Floral hop over light caramel or biscuit. Carbonation hardly noticeable. Towards the finish hop turns a bit grapefruity. Brew also turns a bit watery.
