Country Life Country Bumpkin

Beer with a great deal of potential but a little rough around the edges. Had it on a couple of different visits to Devon, but this was in Great Torrington just down the road from the brewery.

Darkish pour with a distinct lack of head. Carbonation was absent but there were some decent reddish hues. Strong certainly, without much subtlety, this beer speaks bitterness and alcohol. Despite this rough approach I really felt as though there were malts fighting to get out and perhaps in another batch you could have a less aggressive experience.

This is still a pretty young brewery, but I think that they are one to watch. A little way away from the finished article just yet, but we’ll see in time.
