Proper Job is an authentic IPA brewed with Cornish spring water and malt made from a blend of malts including Cornish grown Maris Otter barley.
Proper Job is dedicated to the 32nd (Cornwall) Regiment who stoutly defended their garrison during the Indian Mutiny in 1857-58. Throughout
the siege the traditional "Sunset Ceremony" (beating the retreat and lowering the national flag) was ignored as an act of defiance to the mutineers. In recognition of a "Proper Job" Queen Victoria awarded the 32nd the honour.

From cask at Castle Tavern, Inverness. Clear golden, uneven off-white head. Aroma and taste of citrus zest and lime marmelade. Bitter grape fruit and lemon in aftertaste. Good drinkability. A drinkable bastard between an English Pale Ale, a very moderate American IPA and a Golden Ale.
