I've had a few Thornbridge beers over the years but I didn't realise that Lord Marples was their first ever beer. It all started here!
It's a deliciously dark mahogany brown coloured beer with a small, loose, beige head that disperses slowly to leave a thin, patchy layer. The aroma is mouthwatering, especially for a bitter fan like me; it's a traditional bitter smell of malt, caramel, honey, tangy hops and dark fruit.
Flavour is quite light but definitely bitter; it's a stunning mixture of caramel, honey, malt and dark fruits with an unusual bittersweet finish. It's very well carbonated and has a thin but not watery body.
It's quite an unusual bitter in that its balance leans towards the sweet side but its light flavour make it a very nice, easy drinking beer. I love bitter so Ale Be Seeing You again.
