Originally brewed for the brewery's launch in 1994, Coaster was named after a style of boat which on occasion can be seen plying its trade near our home at Rock on Cornwall's rugged North Atlantic coast. Brewed to 3.6% ABV but with a generous measure of flavour and light golden hue, Cornish Coaster is both moreish and refreshing and the perfect beer to quench the thirst on a hot summers day.

Cask @ The Albert, Hebden Bridge. Clear golden with a small creamy head. Session bitter with a low to medium bitterness. Not that malty with a palatable enough texture.

Cask at the Hansom Cab - London. Pours clear gold with a supertight eggshell cream head. Hints of dry lemon on the nose, some crispy hay and leaves. Light sweet flavor, simple bready sugars, a little hay. Light bodied with fine and very creamy carbonation. Fair condition. Mild bitterness to finish with some white bread, hay, faint crunchy leaves. Tasty, basic.

Cask at the Half Moon, Windlesham - 09/08/12. Light orange with a small white head. Light citrusy hop on the nose and a pinch of malt. Similar taste to nose with a little biscuit. Thin in body bitter dry mouth feel on the finish. Drinkable, I prefer it to Doom Bar, but nothing exciting.

Also sold as "Sharp’s Anglers Tackle" at The Anglers, Walton-on-Thames. __ Copper colour. Aroma has some nice honey notes and a hint of hop. Flavour has a pleasant sweetness but remains quite fresh. Nice hop balance.

Cask at the Trafalgar Inn, Greenwich. Pours golden amber with a creamy white head. Surprisingly malty aroma. Flavor is bitter floral and fruit with underlying caramel. Drinks very well, finishing nicely bitter.
