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.

Golden blond colour. There’s a slightly sweet, citric edge to this beer but otherwise it’s rather bland, thin and watery.

Half pint, cask, well kept and served at Mr Foleys Cask Ale House in Leeds. Bright golden, almost no head, fragile lacing. Grassy hops to the nose. Taste of some herbal kind of hops with a rather sharp, but short lived, bitter finish. So and so, 11.07.2010.

500ml bottle. Pours a dark amber with no head. Anything on the nose? No, maybe a little bit of malt. Not much on the taste, just some fruity malt and a bitter finish. Scored higher then I normally would, but if I was drinking this in the pub, I’d love it, but at home from the bottle it doesn’t quite work.

14th April 2010. Clear amber beer. Softish light palate. A little dry. Nice orange pineapple fruit but torpedoed by sulfur. Finishes the same way. A shame - so nearly a good beer but the sulfur persistently detracts.
