Yet another brewery that is unknown to me. The Atlantic Brewery started brewing in 2005. It is housed in an 18th century farmhouse located a few miles from Newquay and the North Cornish coast. All beers are hand made and produced completely on site, including hop growing and oasting, special malt roasting and all bottling and packaging. All their beers are organic and suitable for vegetarians and vegans. They are now growing their own organic First Gold and Fuggles hops. If you want to find out more you will find it at www.atlanticbrewery.com.
Gold is designed to be a refreshing summer ale with a clean crisp finish and it is spiced with ginger. It is brewed using pale and wheat malts with First Gold and Fuggles hops. I found that taste a bit bland and I am not sure that the ginger added very much. Maybe drinking a summer ale in mid-December is not such a good idea!
The ABV is 4.6% and, like all Atlantic beers, it is bottle conditioned.
