Description
Based in the heart of Stockport for almost two centuries, and owning around 260 tenanted and managed pubs, inns and hotels across the North West, ‘Robinsons’ is one of oldest and most respected names in British brewing history.
Robinsons took over Hartleys brewery in 1982, closing down the Ulverston plant in 1994 and transferring the Hartley brands to the Unicorn brewery. Robinsons bought the rights to the Ward brands in 2006 but subsequently sold some of those brands to Maxim Beer Co.

Bottle from B&M Bargains, Halifax. Dark brown with a small light-brown head. Darker malty but certainly understated as a 'stout' with a hint of floralness.

500 ml can. Pours a dark brown with full tan head. Aromas of creamy chocolate and soft roasted malts. Flavors of lactose, chocolate, and more soft roasted malts. Sweet but nice for the ABV.

Cask at Red Cow, Nantwich (not listed in RateBeer) – at 4.4%. Pours a deep copper with minimal off-white head and good lacing. There’s malts and ginger in the aroma plus a hint of parkin. In the mouth it is the sweetness which claims immediate attention (though there is a little underlying bitterness too). Texture fluctuates between creamy and watery. Flavour is mainly malts and berry fruits, plus hints of spices and autumn fruits. Finish is fruity and slightly sharp. This is reasonable – but a bit bland.

"Inspirada en Bélgica, hecha en Inglaterra"...veamos, Servida en cáliz, color marrón rojizo, transparente, espuma beige de corta retención. Aroma harto sutil a malta ligeramente tostada, caramelo y ligeras notas de lúpulo. No huele mal, tiene un fondo levemente agradable, se puede decir que su intensidad aromática es modesta. En boca nos encontramos notas de acaramelada malta tostada, algo de pasas y ciruela en un cuerpo ligero, poco profundo y con un final mínimamente amargo con cierta nota mineral. En definitiva, sí encuentro en esta cerveza su espíritu inglés, algo también el belga, aunque menos. Se bebe sin esfuerzo nada complicada, fácilmente disfrutable como cerveza "de batalla", y un perfil claramente industrial.
