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 at home in Hackney - may have picked this up from the Co-op. Pours clear, pale gold with a modest, creamy white head. Lightly sweet with neutered pale bread, haircuts, citric hops, a little tangerine, crunchy straw. Light bodied with fine to average carbonation. Further citrus notes and pale biscuits to finish. So so beer.
