Bottle from Beers of Europe. Knowing the brewery had ceased to be I thought it good to try one of their beers before its too late. Pours a clear amber with small off white head, some retention Aroma is very malty with toffee and raisin, light floral hop. Taste again very malty but clean and light although with a slight chewiness. Toffee, light fruity raisin tang, moderate zesty bitterness with some spice notes. Fairly straightforward but pleasant. And there goes my review for the one and only Cotleigh beer I will ever consume!

Cask at The Park Tavern, Eltham. Not had this for many moons, remember seeing this a lot at the Catford Beer Festival back in the 90s. Anyway, nose is toffee, dried fruit, orange marmalade. Taste is toffee, sultanas, whack of orange peel. Sweet malty feel. Good stuff.

Bottle bought whilst on a visit to Somerset. Poured amber with an average sized off-white head. Medium sweetness, light bitterness. Light body, slight oily texture, average carbonation. Ok.

Fra fat på The Old Bell, Fleet Str., London, mars-17: klar rødlig kobber ("tawny") med kort skum. Malt, karamell, ristet loff, milde urter. Lav karbonering gjør at den glir raskt ned. Mild bitterhet med noe urter, krydder og jordtoner.

On cask at the Haymarket Bar. Appearance - amber or tawny as expected. Nice tight lacy head. Nose - malt bag, dank cellar. Corked wine note. Taste - more of that corked wine note. Damp floorboards. Palate - light to medium bodied with that unpleasant dank oxidised taste through to the finish. Overall - oh dear. Is this what the brewer was hoping for.

Bottled 500ml (AbM)
Clear copper color, small off-white head. Aroma has odd cellary hops with hints of crystal malts. Light-bodied. Flavor is also on heavy earthy hoppy side with back crystal malts although not really sweet. 3.8% is not a problem. Odd.
