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.

Bottled (from bierzwerg.de, 5.5 % ABV according to label). Hazy ambery golden olour with mediumsized off-white head, that leaves some lace. Aroma is floral hops as well as some grass along with mild notes of spies. Flavour is floral and fruity hops along with some caramel malts and some slight wooden notes. Longlasting bittery finish.

Cask at the Old Manor (JDW), Bracknell. An attractive amber colour with a dense white head; fresh malt aroma, reminding me of the typical smell downwind of a brewery; there are nice crisp fruity apple flavours and also biscuity malts; however the finish is a bit of a let down with a lingering stewed vegetable taste, reminding me of over cooked spinach, sprouts or cabbage, rather than hops. A good start, but a disappointing finish.

Bottle from ASDA. Amber in colour with a tight white head and plenty of carbonation. Light, bready malt aroma. Flavour was also malty, with slightly tart fruit, the house yeast character and a dryish finish. Ok.

500ml bottle. Having had this on cask, I wasn’t exactly looking forward to this, but this was surprisingly really good. Some house Wadworth yeast on the aroma, but the best things about this beer are the mouthfeel and smooth swallow and the really really good fresh hop sting and lasting hop sting on the finish. Malts are just about ok. Not saying that I’m going out to buy a shed load of this again, but a lot better than I had expected. It won over my indifference.
