Skinners Cornish Lager

Clear golden with large white head. Sweet malty aroma with caramel notes. Sweet fruity flavor with caramel and malty notes. Ends sweet.

330ml bottle from ASDA with a stated ABV of 5%. Deep golden in colour with aroma of buttery malt, hay and grassy hops. Flavour started sweetish, with a hint of citrus and a short, bitter finish. A good lager.

Draught at The Cove, Covent Garden, London. A light golden beer with an off-white head. The aroma is sweet malty with light citrusy notes, but also an acidity that reminds me of brewing cereal of some kind. The flavor is sweet with notes of brewing cereal and malt, leading to a slightly bitter finish.

Comments: An extremely poor beer with explosive, harsh carbonation and bland malts.

Draught@The Cove. Ambery golden colour with mediumsized white head. Aroma is wood, fruits, malts and some nice hoppyness balancing it up. Flavour is malts, fruity hops and some wood. Refreshing brew. Leaves a nice fruitish hoppy aftertaste.
