Bottle from Beers of Europe. Knowing the brewery had ceased to be I thought it good to try one of their beers before its too late. Pours a clear amber with small off white head, some retention Aroma is very malty with toffee and raisin, light floral hop. Taste again very malty but clean and light although with a slight chewiness. Toffee, light fruity raisin tang, moderate zesty bitterness with some spice notes. Fairly straightforward but pleasant. And there goes my review for the one and only Cotleigh beer I will ever consume!

Hand pulled pint (now brewed by Nuttycombe) on 14th December 2024, Crown Inn, Oakengates. Light brown body, off white crust, clean and clear look. Pleasant enough without exciting your taste buds too greatly, subtle bitterness over a weak malty base.
