Sharp's Cornish Coaster

Sharp's beers seem to be popping up a pubs throughout London. I'm not sure of the exact reasoning for this, but I assume they have a marketing and distribution agreement with one of the bigger players as Doom Bar seems to be available nearly everywhere now. Cornish Coaster (3.6% abv) is a golden coloured bitter which has been brewed as a session beer to celebrate for Cornwall's fishing heritage. The beer itself is not the most balanced of beers with the citrus armoa totally overpowering whatever malt profile and bitterness are supposed to be there. To this end the beer is a little dissapointing as the aroma give the impression that the beer is going to be a big beer. As a session beer, the beer is ok and will keep you sober'ish at 3.6% for more than a few pints. I probably wouldn't have this beer again, but if aroma is your thing, then check it out.
