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.

[Cask at the Back of Beyond (JDW), Reading.] An opaque peaty brown pour with a loose beige head; aroma of roasted malts; smooth in the mouth with a dry toasted grain taste; and a well rounded bitterness to finish. A really good dry stout.

Bottled. Yellowish golden colour with a mediumsized white foamy head. Aroma is floral, some sweet malts, herbs and mild toffeeish tones. Flavour is fruity, floral, some herbal and mild wooden notes. Grassy and earthy aftertaste. Aroma was better this time.

Cask at London & North Western, Birmingham. Pours a very dark reddish-brown with a small foamy tan head. There’s roast malts and oats in the aroma, plus some hints of coffee. In the mouth it starts off sweet and creamy but pretty soon some underlying bitterness can be detected. Roast malts again inthe flavour alongside cola and hints of chocolate. Some pepper comes through later as well, leading to a slightly spicy finish. This is a decent stout.

Light bodied with fine carbonation; decent condition. Pretty well balanced finish, cocoa, fruity notes. Sound.
