Description
The UK has been pioneering the art of the perfect pint for centuries. Today, the brewery business is as tough as it’s ever been and competition is fierce. There is one company that dominates the industry: Marston’s Brewery. In a fascinating three-part documentary series, Marston’s Brewery: One Ale Of A Job follows the incredibly complex and delicate operation in creating the perfect pint.
Marston’s is the iconic brand which in nearly 200 years, has become the world’s largest brewer of cask ale, supplying nearly two thousand pubs across the nation. Watch as the team behind this gigantic job fights a massive maze of pipes and copper boilers, cellar breakdowns and fermenting vessels with lethal carbon dioxide leaks. One false move and an entire batch could be ruined. To get this all to thousands of pubs and festivals, huge horse-powered trucks make thousands of drinks deliveries a week.
Access all areas in a new character-led observational documentary series that gives a unique insight into a process that works like clockwork. From the ancient northern market towns to the south-west coast of Britain, the cameras follow the ups and downs of the company in one of the most competitive industries in the world. This is what really happens in the finely-tuned and action-packed world of Marston’s Brewery.
