A beautifully balanced beer, fruity by nature, with a well-rounded body and the suggestive echo of Crystal Malt.
A fine balanced, spicy beer. Resinous hop, inviting sweet malt and delicate roasted notes.
The aroma of Doom Bar is an accomplished balance of spicy resinous hop, inviting sweet malt and delicate roasted notes. The mouth feel is perfectly balanced with a complex blend of succulent dried fruit, light roasted malty notes and a subtle yet assertive bitterness. The bitterness remains into the finish with dry fruity notes that implore the drinker to go back for more. (Head Brewer Stuart Howe)
The brewery decided to create a beer that was different to their existing portfolio with the aim of appealing to younger consumers.
After months of experimentation under the code name 'Cuckoo', Cotleigh 25 was quietly launched into the trade.
From that initial launch many publicans remained strongly loyal. So much so, the brewery have been forced to leave it available as a permanent focus brand.
It is an extremely 'quaffable' beer, being refreshing as well as full of taste.
The Rev. James is brewed to a traditional recipe and has been described as having a flavour not commonly available these days. Full-bodied and warming, The Rev. James is rich in palate, spicy and aromatic with a deeply satisfying finish.

Designed as a single-malt beer, this was a stunning counter balance to the traditional view of beer — which it had to be as brown as an old sideboard or as coal black as Irish Dry Stout.
Exmoor Gold, instead, was the colour of Chardonnay or Carling, sparkling in the glass and appealing to both ale drinkers and lager lovers. As well as looking good, by golly it tasted good, with fresh and fruity flavours tripping across the tongue hand in hand with a soft and comforting malty centre.
