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

Half-pint, cask ale, 4 % abv, at Barley Mow. Loose bubbly white head, deep amber body, scattered lacing. Quite inviting malt-fruity smell. Mixed taste of nutty caramel and leafy hops. Semi-dry ending, bittersweet. True to the style, more or less. (Southsea 18.10.2022).

Bottle from Booths Supermarket, Keswick. Darker golden with a light carbonation and a head. Has a decent pale ale texture at a session strength and easy texture. There's a good amount of hoppiness in here with a few malts found too.

Bardzo słodowe z nutą ziołową. Słód mokry, lekko biszkotowe. Barwa złota, piękna piana i lacing, przejrzyste. Goryczka niska, ziołowa. Gładkie, mało nagazowane, po robocie weszło jak złoto. Generalnie nie wymagające, pijalne.

Boca 0,5L - poklon(iz Lidla) - dosta gorko,pivo nema neke pretjerane arome pa ta gorčina još i više (neugodno) strši

Wetherspoon Autumn Beer Festival 2019. Cask @ Commercial Inn, Sowerby Bridge. Golden with a creamy head. It’s a hoppy ale with a mild red berry-fruit aroma, but lesser in taste.

this is all about the strawberrys but not too much else, I'm not sure what happened to the hops. Someone else said its like strawberry sauce you get on ice creams, and it kind of is with a slight maltiness and bitterness. Shame they didn't think to put any flavourful hops in to balance the strawberry.
