St Austell Brewery’s Royal Diamond Imperial IPA – 9.0% ABV Our Queen’s 60 years of loyal service to her Country requires a suitably memorable beer to mark the occasion. Royal Diamond is a fine Imperial IPA (India Pale Ale) that is refermented in Champagne bottles at Camel Valley Vineyards to yield a full tasting, yet pale and sophisticated beer to mark this once in a lifetime occasion. Unfiltered, and at a regal 9.0%, this beer pours honey amber, with a fine mousse. Drunk young, fruity hops and a zesty acidity delight the palate, although complexity will develop if the beer is carefully aged a cool temperatures over several years. www.staustellbreweryshop.co.uk
