Pasteurised bottled beer formerly brewed at Robinson’s for the Double Maxim Brewing Company (Jim Murray, the ex Vaux head brewer) which holds the rights to Ward’s beers because they were taken over by Vaux. The original cask ale was 4.0% and was called Sheffield Best Bitter. Produced on Maxim’s own plant since 2007.
The beer uses English Goldings aroma hops and the colour and flavours are derived from a specialised crystal malt.
Brewing involves a unique secondary fermentation process. This is instigated by adding a hopped priming sugar at a late stage in fermentation. This gives Wards Best Bitter a distinctive malty aftertaste that lingers on the palate.
