Looking forward to baron rating Stroud Maris Otter Vintage Ale 2011

I've got a soft spot for Stroud Brewery, Budding was one of the first ales that we audio baron rating (back in Jan 2010 and again in June 2011). We liked the branding & we enjoyed the beer.

They recently got in touch offering to send me some of their Maris Otter Vintage Ale 2011 -  brewed using an exclusive batch of 100% Organic Maris Otter barley malt and English Organic First Gold hops.

Yet another beautiful bottle from Stroud

 
Stroud Brewery

• Maris Otter Vintage Ale 2011 - 7.5% bottle-conditioned characterful pale ale brewed with First Gold hops providing a balanced bitterness and spicy, orangey, fruity character

They have a couple of very well produced videos on their website about the ethos and making of this beer, make sure you take a look.

Look out for a baron rating for this Stroud Brewery beer soon, and a big thank you to Greg (@StroudBrewery) for sending it through to me!
