A light, golden, hoppy session bitter, the permanent stable-mate on the Star bar to Crowlas Bitter. The ninth brew from the pub’s brewery, hence the name. Fuggles and Pilgrim go into the boil with pale ale malt, with Perle and Amarillo hop added later.

Wonderful taste! Rare up North and worth tracking down. Tried at Wayfarer, Parbold.
[...] Driftwood Spars – Dêk Hop (3.8%) Pale amber, flinty and tannic; hoppy without being flowery. [...]
Sounds very good. Have to try it next time i’ll be around!
Dear Pete Elvin, hello mate, I’m coming down to Cornwall for a weeks holiday in May, do you sell poly-pins of your ales to take away? Lofty.
