Golden Seahawk formerly known as Golden Eagle became a regular brew in Summer 2001 and has rapidly become a firm favourite with local drinkers. Seahawk is traditionally brewed with Devon pale and crystal malted barley which gives the beer its characteristic bright golden colour. Carefully selected Goldings, Challenger and Styrian hops provide a fragrant aroma with a background of honey flavour offering a fruit filled smooth finish.

Cask-conditioned at the Inn on the Green, Bristol. Golden coloured with a decent white head. Aroma of hay and citrus/grassy hops. Flavour had some initial sweetness before a decent dry finish. Refreshing and very similar to Cotleigh 25.

(Cask at Akkurat, Stockholm) Amber colour with frothy white head. Fruity nose with underlying malt, notes of mandarin, orange and dusty, floral hops. Malty taste with citrusy fruit (orange, mandarin) and fresh hops in a rather sweet finish. Light to medium body. Decent malt/hop structure, but a bit on the sweet side.
