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.

On cask at the Kenilworth. Pours golden, slight haze with a nicely proportioned head. The nose has grassy and citrus notes. The taste has soft ripe grapefruit. The palate is medium bodied and textured with a lovely clean finish. Overall, a well made pale ale.

Cask at The Cleveland Arms, London. Pours clear gold with a creamy, sturdy foam head. Looks great. Zesty lemon, straw and fine dough in the nose. Nearly perfect flavor, light to medium sweet with sun-kissed straw bitterness, light dough, mild citrus. Wonderful balance. Light bodied with fine carbonation. Superb condition. Sweet finish with mild dryness, light lemon zest and rind, faint grass, straw, modest dough. Here, now, this beer is near perfect stuff.

Cask. Golden with a slight haze and a rough off-white head leaving a little laces. Discreet fruity hoppiness in the nose. Fairly light body, a little fruity sweetness and a dry finish from slightly perfumy hops. Drinkable alright but somewhat bland. 190111
