COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Cask; Regular.
Trelawny Ale invokes the best Cornish traditions, heritage and innovation. Locally grown barley is gently roasted to give this beer a classic burnished copper colour and a robust full body which belies its modest strength. A unique blend of traditional English Golding, and specially imported Galaxy hops from distant South Australia harmonise to give this beer a distinctive character of the old, and the new world. Peach and apricot notes dominate the aroma, with hints of butterscotch and toffee apple. The taste is full, with toasted biscuit and jam being balanced by the mellow, yet assertive bitterness of tangy hops.

KeefOz (471) - Tarragindi, AUSTRALIA - APR 30, 2013
Tasted 19/4/2013 draught "The Victoria Inn", Roche, Cornwall. Poured a moderate golden amber with a slight red tint. Poured as a glass of bubbles that settled to a 5mm off-white head. Laced well. Aroma ever so slight malt. Light tasting with a mild bitterness. Light body with a bit of a watery mouthfeel. Smooth, soft, nice, light finish.

Rose Tavern. Pale copper with small white head. Hay, malt and sweet fruit. Sweetness from the caramel malts masks the bitterness from the hops, but some tannin flavour is apparent. Soft medium body.

Cask. Classic deep golden ale with a thick offwhite head. Lemon, peach and summer berry on the nose. Light and fruity in the mouth. Some light berry, lemon, grapefruit, peach and pear. Some grape. There's a dank wood maltiness in the finish which spoils it somewhat.

Cask conditioned handpump Althorp Coaching Inn Great Brington 04/01/13. A brown beer with an off-white head. Gentle orangey hoppy flavours are very palateable. The nose is yeasty and dulkl and gives no suggestion of the decent hops which are to follow. A drinkable fairly weak bitter.

jmgreenuk (1284) - The Hague, NETHERLANDS - SEP 1, 2012
Cask at the Goat and Tricycle, Bournemouth. Poured a clear copper colour which looked really special when held up to the light. A thin white short-lasting head with some heavy lace. A very peachy aroma which was also present in the taste. The fruit and bitterness hits the back of your throat shortly afterwards. A really tasty, smooth and refreshing ale and perfect for a session. Those citrus notes set this beer apart from the crowd! ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
