A pale brown beer combining the character of both a best bitter and a golden ale. Marmalade citrus hop on the nose leads to a powerful citrus fruit and hop bitter-ness in the mouth but with a distinct malt balance. Malt fades in the finish, with persistent fruity bitterness and rising dryness.

Pint from the cask at the Crumblehorn Inn, Polperro. Pours a deep brown with a off white head. Aromas & tastes of caramel, bread, marmalade & malt. Medium body. Light bitter finish. Enjoyable

Light lime, some leather and a little tobacco. Not sure how old this one is. Dark brown with decent head. Light tang in the finish. Bottle.

Cask @ the brewery. Nice head with good duration. Color is amber. Aroma and taste are caramel, fruits, malt and hops. Nice caramel finish.

Cask @ Rising Sun, Gunnislake. Clear copper with a bubbly head. It’s a lighter malty ale with decent, robust hops. Somewhat dry, it’s a an easy session beer.

500ml bottle @ monthly tasting, Chez Sophie, Aug 22. Thanks Jeremy for bringing this from your travels to Arthur's round table. Clear amber appearance, medium white head. Initial impressions of stewed marmalade, sweet malt with a robust twiggy bitterness. Quite old school in feel, and not really a style I aim for in a pub, but a decent whack of flavour here.

22nd August 2022; Shrewsbury Beer Exchange, Chez Sophie. Five guys drinking beer and talking shit! First beer of the evening is a 500ml bottle of this (BB November 2022), brought by me. Clean amber pour, wispy white head. Malty front and fairly sweet, some light orange flavours and slightly bitter towards the finish. Nice, easy start to the session.

Bottle from Purely Cornish. Appearance - amber with a nice creamy head. Nose - brown bread, going into biscuit then a whiff of citrus. Taste - pine and biscuits, slightly burnt. Palate - light to medium bodied, roasty middle and finish. Overall - a decent example of the style.
