Notes to Editors tagged on the end of press releases are seldom worth reading. But thanks to Gemma for being hawk-eyed enough to spot this one!

 

As we exclusively reported last week, Marmite has teamed up with Marston's to launch a Marston's Marmite for the Ashes series this summer.

 

According to the release, the limited edition product is:

 

‘A sensuous dark brew which allows Pedigree's natural ingredients to shine through: the softness and delicacy of its ‘free-range' yeasts; the smoky, mellow complexity of the oak barrels in which it is matured; the floral orange flavours of its Goldings and Fuggles hopes; and the chewy caramel sweetness of its Maris Otter barley malts. Subtle, complex and with a long, spicy finish, this is a truly English affair. Every Marmite and beer lover's dream.'

 

And Vegemite?

 

‘Vegemite is made using enzymes to split open the yeast cells from waste obtained from the Cartlon & United brewery'.

 

Howzat!!?

For some reason best known to themselves, Marstons sent me a frrebie of the beer and the Marmite (thanks guys). Whatever rubbish the press release says, it tasted just like normal Marmite to me. But the jar design was cood (just like a cricket ball) and I'd run out of the normal stuff so thanks guys. The beer wasn't bad either.

Great work to get the sledging started early, but Marmite and Ped?  Wrong, so wrong
