Skinners, brewery of awesomeness

June 12, 2009 under Uncategorized

After Andy’s very positive writeup of Skinners Cornish Lager, I will add two more reviews.  All three are so positive that I’m tempted to declare Skinners Brewery the most reliably tasty Brewery I have data on (so I need to drink more!)

Skinners Cornish Knocker – This pale ale was enjoyed draught by Andy and myself in the sunshine in Falmouth overlooking the harbour.  It was strong, not to sweet, slightly floral and awesomly refreshing!

Skinners Betty Stogs – We tried this bottled beer from the brewery sitting in the sunshine at the campsite.  At the time I thought it was a beautifully unique tasting red ale, scoring a reliable 5.  I later learnt that it was all over the Skinners shop because it won Best Ale in the 2008 Earls Court “Great Beer Festival”.  Thats some accolade.  I don’t know whether to be sad that I have the same taste as everyone else or glad that I really can taste a good ale from a bad one!
