Cask, gravity at Banbury Beer Festival 05.05.11 Pours light golden good clarity with a few clean white bubbles that swiftly departed. Really good condition. The aroma smells like a millpond, I donโt mean that in a negative sense its just that was exactly what the first whiff of that evoked memories of. This does exactly what it sets out to do, its a very tasty lightly hoppy session beer, with just the very slightest hop burn detected. Crikey a Cornish beer that I really liked, now that is a turn up! A7 A5 T7 P4 Ov14 3.7

Bottle from the brewpub. Golden colour and a nice sparkle. Hoppy, herbal aroma is nice and bright. Fairly bitter, pithy and with light citrus notes. Good, hearty ale that blends lager with American pale. The lager malts really show through. We bought a case - top stuff.

Near black. The aroma has a lot of chocolate - quite desserty. The taste is like a chocolate liqeur, just rich milk chocolate. Lots of sugars and light alcohol note in the finish.

Dull golden-amber. Almost cheesy the way the malts and alcohol come together. Strong. The alcohol maybe lends a slight plasticy note. Some caramel finish.

Golden. Nice bubbly head. Bright citrusy American (amarillo?) nose. Nice bitterness - citrus, tropical fruit. Refreshing, slightly creamy. Really drinkable.

Pigs Ear. Clear gold beer. Ghostly white head. Lots of citrus marmalade, mild lemon and orange - grapefruit. Lower carbonation than I would prefer but lively fruit. Semi dry finish with a slightly bitter aftertaste. Sessionable and decent.
