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?

Jack D'Or - Original from Saint Mars of the Desert
7 years ago
8.1/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 8 Flavor 8 Texture 8 Overall 8.5
Tap, at the brewery. Also in can, at home. Vibrant, pale gold. Thin and dense, lasting, semi lacing, white head. Nose has floral, herbal, spicy hop leaf. Lemony brett. Touch of sourdough. Touch of white grape. Taste is sweet and bready first off, with a tangy, tart, bretty, bright hop bitterness. Light to medium body. Some hop oiliness. Fine carbonation. Lingering hop and lemony brett bitterness to finish. I could happily (and just did) drink this all day.

Barbapapa (2019) from Saint Mars of the Desert

8/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 8 Flavor 8 Texture 8 Overall 8
Tap, at the brewery. Nearly black. Super sticky, lasting, lacing, viscous, tan head. Looks boss. Nose has fruity coffee bean. Vine fruit. Milky coffee. Dark chocolate malt. Bit of a malted milk biscuit thing going on. Taste is sweet and vinous, with a fairly deep, roast malt and coffee bitterness. Smooth mouthfeel. Fine carbonation. Medium to full body, without feeling the ABV by some way. Long, lingering bitterness to finish. Nice one. Could do lots of this.

Cito from Saint Mars of the Desert

7.5/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 7 Flavor 8 Texture 8 Overall 8
Bottle, picked up at the brewery. Also had this on tap at the brewery. Hazed, orange gold. Thin, dense swirl of white head. Nose has pale malt. Some sweet cereal. White pepper. Fresh hop leaf. Notes orange rind. Hint of stone fruit. Taste is light sweet, with a nicely balanced, fresh hop bitterness. Super clean on the palate. A little drying. Fine carbonation. Bitterness rises and lingers on the finish. Very sessionable without holding back on the bitterness. Nice one.
