Description
The Eagle Brewery was previously a Charles Wells brewery site and became part of Marston's (Carlsberg Marston's Brewing Company) wider business in May 2017. The Eagle Brewery continued to brew many of the former Charles Wells brewery brands sold to Marston's including brands such as Bombardier, Courage, and McEwan's.
The Eagle Brewery was later sold by the Carlsberg Marston's Brewing Company (CMBC) to S.A. Damm (Grupo Damm) in November 2022, though Eagle brands remain with Marstons.

Amber color. Poor aroma, light honey (?), stinks. Poor taste, dry, no character (very light malt, no hop aroma). Poor, simple, watery palate. As much drinkable as a Heineken.

There is nothing warming about this beer at all. When I hear the phrase winter warmer, I expect a lot of alcohol and a lot of flavor, both of which this beer lacks. It''s flavor is decent, but lacking in many respects. The body and finish are thin and watery. Not a very good beer, not terrible either, but I wouldn''t get this again.

Extremely dark brown. Moderately brown head of 1cm. Aroma of chocolate, almonds, light coffee. Very artificial chocolate sweetness like Nestle Quik chases away bitter roast barley notes. Cloying finish.
