Dark amber color, steady creamy off-white head. Light, caramelly and hoppy nose. Woody, nutty flavor - backing caramel maltyness. Low bitterness, only some hops in the aftertaste.

Permanent cask at the Lamb & Flag, Oxford on 29th April 2009. Classic, rounded yet full-flavoured Cornish ale, on its best form with a creaminess of flavour mildly salient over a delicate balance of malt and hop. There were notes of clotted cream in the finish, over which I was waxing lyrical last night.

Cask-conditioned at the Town of Ramsgate, Wapping 01/04/09. Amber coloured with a moderate white head. Aroma of fruity malt with some floral hops. Flavour started sweet, before more hoppiness and a decent bitter finish. A good session bitter.
