Skinners Cornish Knocker - take 2

This is a beer I tried previously (see entry for November 22) and which did not live up to expectations. I opined at the time that perhaps it was a duff bottle.



Well, I got presented with another bottle. I did not recognise it (it has been 6 months!) but this time it lived up to the billing. It is an amber/gold beer that has hops all the way through. Spice and fruit in the mouth are balanced by bitter and malt undertones , with a cleansing bittersweet finish.



So - definitely worth a try, as long as you get a sound bottle!
