Enigma’s partners, Rory Smith and Neil Mercer, attended the launch of a new winter ale, Dartmoor Brewery’s Dragon’s Breath, at Princetown’s Plume of Feathers on Thurday night. Attending at the invitation of Enigma Associate Sarah Ruffles, Landlady of the Plume of Feathers, they talked to Mark Shackleton, the brewery’s director, who described the ale as having a “hint of treacle or autumn fruits”.
Neil Mercer enjoyed several pints of Dragon’s Breath and thought that the beer should sell very well over the winter months.
Sarah Ruffles said: “The evening was a great success and the ale was very popular.” As mentioned in The Herald the day before the launch, Sarah had also prepared food using the ale – in mustard-and-ale mayonnaise for fish cakes, ale butter for a toad-in-the-hole and in sausages.
Dartmoor Brewery is geared up to make 1,000 barrels of Dragon’s Breath and Enigma Solicitors wish them success with their new ale, which is currently exclusive to certain Dartmoor pubs.
