Martinsh (2802) - Crewe, Cheshire, ENGLAND - OCT 13, 2023UPDATED: OCT 13, 2023 Cask at Hops, Crewe (4/10/23). This is the version produced by Thornbridge, but I have also drunk the original Kelham Island version, though I don’t seem to have rated it. Pours a golden yellow with as mall white head and good lacing. The aroma has malts and citrus plus some hoppy hints. In the mouth it is sweet with floral hops, oranges, grains and low carbonation. Later on some sharpness creeps in too. This is entirely reasonable – nice and refreshing.
