Description
Papworth Brewery is the inevitable outcome of a beer-loving scientist becoming disillusioned with his career. Chances are that you’re a beer lover too and can understand why someone would give up a successful 25 year career to brew beer. It’s got to be more interesting than most other jobs, right? Well, that’s the way our beer-loving scientist saw it. When “job satisfaction” is the taste of a good pint, who can argue?

Papworth Brewery was founded on an uncompromising philosophy, It’s All About The Beer, and an ambition to brew deliciously drinkable ales. The idea is that if we stick to the philosophy, then we’ll achieve the ambition.

Bottle from Bury Lane Farm Shop. Medium brown. Cloudy. Thick light beige head makea a concerted to escape the environs of the glass. The srom's sour berry streak provides a balance to the creamy sugared coffee. Underlying malts. Tangy berries and bitter coffee. The aroma suggested sweet elements that are then not present, other than some Willo o'the Wisp encounters.. Light-medium bodied. Slick to oily. Soft-fizzy carbonation. Long dry astringent finish. Punchy not so Mild.

Sample courtesy of Grumbo, cheers! Aroma is floral, grassy, pine, tropical fruit, lemon and a lot of yeast. Taste is yeasty and grassy with the fruits coming through. Very soft carbonation. Very good.
