Description
2005 saw the acquisition of Jennings Brewery by Marston’s PLC.

In 2009, the Cockermouth floods had a huge impact on the business and the site, forcing Marston’s to implement flood safety features and barricades throughout the site. A few short years after the floods, brewing transferred out of the town and a mass rebrand occurred.

Marston's retrained ownership of the brewery (through Carlsberg UK) until it closed its doors in November 2022

Und noch ein Bier aus der Golden Ale-Box von Hofer. Dieses Bier halte ich für ok, aber etwas besonderes ist es nicht. Es ist recht bitter und auch mir zu sprudelig für ein Golden Ale. Der Name wird auf dem Etikett erklärt: Das Wort "Cook-a-hoop" hat im lokalen Dialekt 2 Bedeutungen: 1. "very high spirits" und 2. "boastful", was soviel wie "prahlerisch" heißt und gut zu dem eitlen Gockel passt, der die Vorderseite der Flasche ziert.

0.5l bottle. Clear golden body with a quickly disappearing white head. Weak grainy aroma with a hint of sugar syrup and maybe some apples. Taste is not much different from the aroma. Grains and sugar syrup shows up first here as well. The end of the sip has a bit of spicy hops that makes it a bit palatable. Cool label not so nice beer.
