2016 catch up - A good beer, but very lively and overall very yeasty. A strong kick of bitter and fruity hops and a thick mouth feel with a level of creaminess. Feb 2018 re-rate as Proper Job Cornish IPA - Personally I think this is a different beer to bottled Proper Job, but what do I know. Anyway, bottle at home from Tesco. A good pour with some head and a lovely gentle aroma of fruity hops. The colour was light, bright and really rather pretty. The taste was fruity hops that reminded me of the aroma of English hedgerows and orchards. This was drunk while eating some cheese and crackers and it was a good pairing. I really liked this hop style because it didn't slap me round the face and make me think I was being force fed toilet cleaner. So many IPAs are being brewed for the "raters" and are almost undrinkable beyond a few sips. This was something that I could drink and drink and drink, although the high abv makes that impossible. I had the last drop from the bottle as I was doing the recycling at the end of the evening and the hops had got even sweeter. Anyway, rambling monologue over, this was a really good beer and I will target it again for the summer.
