Description
Brewer of real ales, with over 150 pubs across the South of England. The original Northgate Brewery had been in existence since at least 1837. Henry Wadworth bought the company in 1875, moving to the present purpose built Northgate Brewery building in 1885. John Smith Bartholomew, Wadworth's son-in-law, became a partner in 1887, and it has been owned by the Bartholomew family ever since. In 2016 Wadworth brewery completed an ambitious 4 years investment plan to move all aspects of the brewery onto one location.

Bottle at home in Hackney- sourced via Ocado. Pours clear copper with a bubbly off-white head. The nose holds toasted brown bread, English yeast, some crackers, hay. Light-medium sweet with more toasted malts, faint toffee, suggestions of citrus, orange, melon, light bitterness. Light bodied with average carbonation. Nicely balanced finish, with more lightly toasted bread, semi-ripe citrus fruits, orange rind, British yeast. I find this really enjoyable.
