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?

Keg at BD Seven Dials, 17/10/19. Deep mahogany brown with a tan cap that dissipates to a swirl. Nose is clove, fruit cake, brown sugar, dates, mixed spice, dried berry fruits. Taste comprises toasted brown sugar, fruit cake, spice, yeast esters, toffee, brown sugar, clove, dates, prunes, leather, berry skins. Full bodied, fine carbonation, drying close with a balanced rising boost. Decent quad ... weighs in well for the ABV.

Tap, at the brewery. Murky, deep chestnut brown. Huge, dense, lasting semi lacing, beige head. Nose has dried stone fruit. Some light roast malt. Hint of fruit and nut chocolate. Some brown sugar. Taste is sweet, sugary and vinous. Light, coffee bitterness. Smooth mouthfeel. A little dry. Fine carbonation. Lingering vinous bitterness to finish. Really good.

Keg at BD Aberdeen. It pours opaque nearest black with a small beige head. The aroma is rich, sweet, oily, perfumed, glacé cherry, candy sugar, spice, nougat, berry, plum, dried fruits, tangy fruit cake and cola cubes. The taste is rich and toothy, slick, oily, toasty grain, loads of dark fruits, dried fruits, fruit cake, warming boozy vibes, glacé cherry, manhattan cocktail, earthy, toasted brown bread and tannin with drying out. Fulsome body and fine carbonation. A rich, fruity drop. Decent.
