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.

Bottle from Tesco, Brooklands. Yes, clearly purchased for the style tickage. Aroma is super sweet, like superglue. Opaque dark brown. Thick foamy beige head. Sweet sweet stuff. Fruity. Gluey. Caramel. Followed by a bitter streak that combines berries and the twigs they were picked from (presuming they don't just dump the whole brach in - twigs, berries, and all). Light-medium bodied. Slick. Soft-fizzy carbonation. Long somewhat astringent finish. Decent enough. Twiggy nut boozy.
