I’ve spent an enjoyable day at Marston’s Brewery on a Cask Marque training course, learning about brewing, cellarmanship and taste training. Time for a few beers along the way.
BeerABVScoreNotes
Marston's - Pedigree4.50GoodIf only all pub pints of Pedigree tasted as good as this. A little sulphur in the nose. Amber in colour and quite a soft mouthfeel. A bit of biscuit malt and not much hop character.
Marston's - Pedigree New World Pale Ale3.80GoodThe best pint of this beer I have tasted. Pale gold in colour. Fruity and flowery hop tastes. Sharp and bitter with a long finish.
Marston's - Wychwood Hobgoblin IPA (was Ruby Beer, was Hobgoblin)4.50AcceptableChestnut/ruby in colour. Toffee and mild coffee tastes. Sweet and tangy. Not my thing at all and I had trouble finishing a half pint.
