Commercial Description:
Pasteurised bottle.
St. Austell’s most sought after ale is available as a 500ml bottled beer. It’s perfectly balanced flavour retains much of the cask versions unique hoppy palate and citrusy nose. An ale to savour and a real Cornish ambassador. Rapidly becoming “the” Cornish Premium Ale, this great beer can now be enjoyed outside of the county of Cornwall. Many supermarkets take Tribute, enabling those who enjoy drinking at home to enjoy the true taste of Cornwall.

50 cL bottle. Pours slight cloudy orange with a lacing white head. Light floral hops aroma. Flavour is mild fruity with a mild citrus fruity note and a mild bitterness. Light sweet malt base. Ends medium dry and fruity bitter.

I’ve tried this many times, cant understand why I haven’t rated it before now. Anyway, it’s a good clear amber/gold colour, on this occasion the head is non-existent, but it may have been ok on previous suppings....I cant recall! Nose is pleasantly floral & slightly spicy, palate is rather lacking, at first there is a burst of malty sweetness but that just fades away and the overall finish is too short and bland. It’s not a bad beer, just lacks the balance and the length of finish to make it a cracker.

50cl bottle @ vinensverden, Odense: Pours golden/orange with a fine white head. Aroma is hops - quite a lot of citrus & grass. Mouthfeel is good - medium & smooth. Malty buiscuit notes. Very nicely balanced bitter. Funky fresh & crisp!

Long time ago me and my brother rater here,
We was hitch-hikin’ down a long and lonesome road
All of a sudden, there stank a stinky ticker
In the middle of the road

And he said: "Drink the best beer in the world"
or he’d eat our souls (our souls)

Well me and my rater,... we looked at each other,
and we each said...
"Okay."

And we drank the first beer that came out our bag,
it just so happened to be,
The Best Beer in the World,
it was The Best Beer in the World.

Look into our notepads and read our rate,
With a Bayseian weighting, it was 4.8,
(it was really great)

Needless to say,
the ticker was stunned.
Whip-crack went his trolley,
And the ticker was done.

He asked us: " Be you scoopers?"
And we said, "Nay.
We are RateBeerians:
RATE!!!!"

This is not The Greatest Beer in the World, No.
This is just Tribute.

Couldn’t afford The Greatest Beer in the World, No.
This is just Tribute.

Not as impressive as cask, still has a deep bitterness licked with fresh flowery hops.
