Description
In 1981, Peter Mauldon, the great grandson of Anna Maria decided to re-establish the family tradition and start a brewery in Sudbury once again. Peter had been too young to be involved in the original family business and had previously pursued a career with Messrs. Watney where he progressed to Head Brewer at the company’s large Mortlake Brewery.

500ml bottle [from a trade with Grumbo - thanks Graham!]. Clear, ruby-brown colour with small to average, frothy, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, off-white head. Weak, malty aroma, cautious hints of toffee, a touch of hazelnut, unspecific fruity hoppy overtones. Taste is dry, toasty, nutty and earthy malty, hints of Brazil nut, hazelnut, subtle sweetness, bitter hoppy overtones.
