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.

Crosse Keys. Spoons. Cask. Clear amber beer, small pale cream colour head. Palate is light and dry with decent fine carbonation. Dry malts bring a whisper of sweetness. Bitter orange peel and bitter floralness. Touch of spice. Dry finish. Utterly standard bitter but it’s all right.

Cask at the Plough, Little Downham. Dark brown with a creamy off-white head. Scent of malt, black cherry, a hint of metal. Balanced bittersweet taste, with a hint of sour cherry. Chocolate and cereal notes. Palate’s a bit thin. Agreeable sour/bitter aftertaste. Pretty darn good for the style.

Cask handpull Crosse Keys London. Clear chestnut colour. I have always liked Mauldons beers and this is decent. A little nutty on the aroma an attractive mix of malt fruit sweetness and bitter in the mouth and a lasting bitter finish. Good best bitter. Ok condition

Bottle from Waitrose, Stevenage. Golden with a thin head. Has a good malt-hop balance with a small fruitiness throughout, and an easy drinking texture.

Bottle, 0.50l, shared with colleagues. Pitch black color with thin creamy light brown head and nice lacing. Aroma of heavily roasted malt, smoke, charcoal and leather. Taste starts with light sweet but rich roasted malt with nutty note, following is smoky and mild fruity, mouthfeel is dry, while finish is mild bitter. Medium body, creamy texture and soft carbonation in palate. This one was incredibly hard to drink, smoke and leather notes were too strong...
