Description
We started brewing in Burton-Upon-Trent in 1834. Then in 1898 we got itchy feet. So we moved down the road to the Albion brewery. We still like it so we’ve not moved again since.
We came to Burton for the water. Well, for the rocks the town was built on to be precise. The water trickles down through a thick layer of gypsum before we bring it back up again through our well. That’s what gives our beers the depth of flavour, character and crisp refreshing bitterness that you won’t find anywhere else in the world.

Clear golden beer, white head. Sweet zesty aroma. Flavour has citrus, a little grassy hop. Reasonably refreshing, a little hop in the finish. It's fine? It's a generic pale. Drinkable enough though.
