Still brewed in small batches and to the original recipe, Original is a magnificent, authentic and moreish example of the traditional English Ale style and can be found in selected outlets in Cornwall and beyond.

Cask. Colour is between nutbrown and amber, and has a small beige head, which vanishes quite quickly. Aroma is nutty, caramel malty as well as mildly fruity and flowery. Flavour is quite the same, but a lot milder than I expected. The finish is quite bittery hoppy.

Cask at Charlie’s Bar, Copenhagen. An amber beer with a thin beige head. The aroma is weet with notes of bisquits and dusty hops, but also with hints of stearin. The flavor is sweet malty with strong notes of berriesand medium notes of bisquits and caramel, leading to a dry bitter finish.

Cask conditioned handpull at Market Porter. Chestnut colour with lasting beige head. A slightly sulphury aroma soon burns off. Some sherbert. Fullish, creamyish. Some fruit. A little bit earthy, but this really nice sharp sherbert hop comes up on the finish. Odd, I don’t like the first hit, but the swallow and finish are good.
