Manchester Brown Ale

◎ Appearance

Chestnut brown in colour with good clarity and a fine, persistent head. The carbonation is moderate and well-integrated, creating a gentle foam that displays good retention on the glass.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with pronounced nutty and roasted malt character, accompanied by subtle woody notes and a hint of molasses sweetness. Gentle caramel and burnt sugar aromas round out the bouquet without overwhelming the palate.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with rich malty sweetness and toasty grain character that carries through the mid-palate with subtle oak undertones. The 34 IBUs provide restrained bitterness, allowing the soft caramel and nut flavours to dominate, while maintaining excellent balance and drinkability.

◑ Finish

The finish is clean and soft, with the roasted malt and caramel notes fading gently into a subtle woody dryness. No harshness lingers; instead, a refined sweetness and easy drinking character remain.
