Skinner's Cornish Lager

Another new brewery - or new to me at least. As the name of the beer suggests, they are based in Cornwall - Truro to be exact. They celebrated their 12th anniversary this summer and are a family-run brewery with a wide selection of cask conditioned ales, and claim that since opening they have won more awards than any other brewery in the South West. In 2008, their bitter won the Champion Bitter award at the Great British Beer Festival. More information available at http://www.skinnersbrewery.com/home

Cornish Lager is a light and clear tasting lager which we had chilled and very much enjoyed. There is not a great amount of details on the contents, other than "...finest Cornish barley, Wheat, Malt and English and American hops." It is not bottle conditioned and is 5% ABV.
