Description
McMullens was founded in 1827 by Peter McMullen and since then we have continued brewing in Hertford without a break. The heritage of AK, for example, can be traced back to 1833. We have protected the company’s brewing history throughout that time by acquiring and investing in the public houses. Our pubs are run by our managers or business partners and provide an exclusive market for our beers. To this day, the McMullen family remains firmly committed to our beers because they act as the ‘flag’ for our business.

Bottle from Morrisons and drunk at home. Stick a label on it saying Craft Brewed, doesnt’ mean it’s any good. And this isn’t. A little sweet a touch of butter, not much hop. It’s just a sweetish pale ale that just doesn’t go anywhere. Wow. It’s a long time since I had something this dull and awful. No faults. Just not very interesting at all.
