At the mouth of the Camel Estuary in Rock, lies the treacherous Doom Bar sandbank, the inspiration for this moreish amber ale.
The sandbank is revered as a formidable nautical challenge that should be approached with respect and navigated with skill.

Cask at Little Owl, near NEC Birmingham. Light cloudy amber, small white head. Sweet caramel, fruity resin, earthy, a bit tangy with a herbal bitterness. Slick body with a tingly carbonation. It's ok.

Clear amber with a frothy off-white head and a malty nose with hints of floral hops. Light bodied, itโs sweet and malty up front but a touch of floral hop bitterness cuts in before a dry finish.

Bottle. Clear amber with a small white head. Aroma of nuts, malts and caramel. Taste of malts, dried fruits, caramel, hints of citrus fruits, toffee, nuts and some herbs. Low to moderate bitterness. Low carbonation. Itโs alright but pales drastically in terms of personal enjoyment compared to the cask version.

Amber pour with a small white/cream pour. Aromas of malt, grain, some cocoa/coffee - taste is similar. Alright overall
