Description

Brewed in 1995 to celebrate our 150th anniversary. A bottle conditioned recipe inspired by the original Fuller's brewing books. The Amber malts and Goldings hops combine to create a superb fruitcake aroma along with the biscuity & nutmeg malt.

Brew Notes

Best poured slowly, 1845 delivers a sweet, fruit cake aroma, a dark tawny colour and a dry finish that sings of spices and raisin. Those fruity characteristics harmonise perfectly with the biscuity malts amid a clever and complex range of subtle flavours, the depth of which you could only find in a live beer fermented in the bottle.

Excellent, deep and complex flavour

"Excellent, deep and complex flavour - refreshing. Not really a session beer - better kept for a celebration but any excuse for a celebration works!"

Excellent- my favourite bottled beer.

"Fullers 1845 has been my favourite bottled beer for many years. Strong, with lots of flavour from the bottle conditioning. Despite its strength an easy drinking beer too. No longer available in our local supermarkets, I recently ordered some direct from Fullers. Excellent service with prompt delivery. Will definitely order again."

"An iconic ale brewed to celebrate the brewery's 150th anniversary. Comes in a mahogany colour and has a balanced taste of dried fruits, the rare use of amber malts and a long dry finish, thanks to the use of East Kent Goldings. In fact, this may be my favourite Fuller's beer."
