1845

Superb beer. Warming and refreshing. Tastes of coffee, caramel and raisins. Hides the ABV very well. A special treat is this one

The very Fullerst Praise...

I can give only the very Fullerst praise to the Fullers brewery - whether it be 'London Pride' 'ESB', '1845', the 'Vintage Ales' or any other beers in their range.
I've been drinking them since I was a lad and now, approaching 155 years of age, I'm still drinking and enjoying them....

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.

Raise a Glass

Matured for 100 days prior to its release, allowing the character and depth of flavour to develop into something truly special. It’s brewed with amber malt - a popular 19th century ingredient that’s now thriving once again. 1845 is the beer that started its renaissance.
