Cotleigh's Buzzard


This is another one from the (smaller) brewery in Wiveliscombe, but quite different from Barn Owl, which is described below. This one is a bottle condistioned Dark Ale, 4.8%ABV. It gets its darkness from the use of chocolate malt but the colour is a deep copper brown rather than the colour of Guinness which you might expect. It has a smoky, smooth finish. It is very nice, but Barn Owl was a bit more to my taste.
