Ref: ratebeer.com May2024
Common descriptors are Cask & bottle; Regular.
Rebranded (the cask version at least) to Blind Tiger in 2016.
A pale golden beer with a fruity orange aroma and a dry peppery finish.
Maid Marian is brewed with Maris Otter Pale malt, Cluster hops, and Nottingham Ale yeast. Its refreshing flavour is from a combination of fresh oranges, coriander and exotic Grains of Paradise. These were a common ingredient in 18th century beers and used as a substitute for pepper which at the time was heavily taxed. |
