:: Otter Bitter	Otter	3.6% ABV
Well balanced amber session bitter with a fruity nose and bitter taste and aftertaste. Deceptively full flavour for its gravity
:: Otter Bright	Otter	% ABV
Brewed with spring water, Devon's Otter Bright is a pale gold beer, with a very thin white head that suggests particularly low carbonation. It is somewhat hazy too, though there is nothing to indicate it is bottle-conditioned. The nose is very appealing, with pear and juicy melon aromas, a creamy suggestion of sweetness and some floral nuances. On the palate it is medium-bodied and very clean and smooth, with crisply-defined apple and sweet pear fruit, a gentle hop quality and nice dry, citrussy finish with a suggestion of ginger ale. Easy to drink and summery.
:: Otter Head	Otter	5.8% ABV
Fruity aroma and taste with a pleasant bitter finish. Dark brown and full bodied. This low-foaming beer from Devon's Otter Brewery pours a dark golden/nut brown colour with a thinnish, off-white head. Malt is the immediate aroma on the nose, with a nice toffee and spice darkness, some hoppy, leafy notes and a suggestion of fennel and liquorice. On the palate it is smooth and medium- to full-bodied, with a real bite of assertive hops dominating, over rich, fudge-like malt. The grip of leafy, iron and mineral hoppiness comes though again, leaving the finish tangy, clean and bitter. 5.8% ABV, 50cl, £1.85, Beersofeurope.
