Description
A lot has changed since the first drop of Carlsberg was shipped to the UK in 1868, and the first Marston's beer brewed in Wolverhampton in 1875 - but our founders' dedication to bringing people together through better beer burns as brightly as ever.

Carlsberg Marston’s Brewing Company is one of the newest, historic brewers in the UK. Formed out of a joint venture between Carlsberg UK and Marston’s PLC, who are both shareholders, we combine over 300 years of shared values, history and heritage in UK brewing.

Name changed from Carlsberg Marston's Brewing Company to Carlsberg Britvic in Jan 2025

0.33 bottle. Pale golden color with no foam after pouring. No outstanding aroma or taste. Its best characteristic is that it’s drinkable - enough said.

Средней паршивости лагерок. Чутка уступающий в послевкусии своему родному брату Хайнекену. Имеется легкая горчинка.
