Description
The Brewery of Saint Mars of the Desert was inspired by the earliest “craft breweries” of Europe: that first generation making beers in disused 19th century breweries with a pioneering spirit, unmoving passion and an almost avant-garde creativity. We relocated from America to the city of Sheffield in South Yorkshire to make this dream a reality and haven’t looked back.

As a very small two-and-a-half person brewery, making world class beers and sharing them fresh with the public is about all we have time for. But who needs more than that?

Can, picked up at the brewery. Full haze on a medium amber. Fine, lasting, messy, off white head. Nose has sweet, biscuity grain with lots of stewed citrus and fresh, piny notes. Taste has some sweetness but is mostly fruity, fresh and clean bitterness. Smooth mouthfeel. A tad drying. Foamy carbonation. Lingering bitterness to finish. Fairly straightforward and really tasty. Multiples of this would be very easy.
