Commercial Description:
Cask; Regular.
A refreshing copper coloured bitter brewed in the traditional English style. An ideal session beer for lunchtime or evening that has a fresh floral hop aroma with a good balance of malt flavour. Its real quality is to be both thirst quenching and full flavoured. Whatever the occasion you will appreciate Blackawton Original Bitter.

Cask-conditioned at the Cornish beer festival, The Star, Bath 19/7/08. Copper coloured with a decent, off-white head. Sweetish red fruit and caramel aroma. Flavour began with a hint of plenty of fruity malt, before a slight graininess and earthy hop finish. Very easy drinking.

Aroma is seriously minimal. Taste is reasonably balanced but a bit thin, some grassy hops, some toffee malts.

<i>Cask &#64; Blakes of Dover, 1 February, 2006</i><br />Has got a nutty off taste that is not to my liking. Some caramell and toffee are present, but missing in bitterness.

<i>Cask Conditioned, at the Market Porter, London.</i><br /> Golden body with an attractive volumous white head. Decent bitter but wouldn’t standout in line up.
