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: Copper coloured, a bit unclear, small stable off-white head; traces of raisins in the sweet toasty and delicate hoppy nose; moderate to solid bitter-sweet flavour, medium bodied; lingering sweet-fruity and dry hoppy finish. Quite good, but should be better rounded........

500ml bottle. Pours amber with a medium frothy head. Aroma is sweet malt, caramel, vanilla and mollasses, seems slightly artificial. Sweet mollasses start. Lots of caramel on the finish with hints of rum.

Bottled. A hazy amber beer with a thin beige head. The aroma has notes of malt and caramel. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, caramel, and fruit, leading to a bitter finish. A bit boring.
