| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | May 20, 2009 22 oz bottle from padrefan98, thanks bro. Pours a good looking brownish burnt orange with ana verage size mostly white foamy head that leaves some lace and a nice tiny 1/16 inch head covers the entire body for the duration. Aroma was slightly sweet with honey and floral notes over a doughy body. Medium bodied with a good dose of carbonation and a slightly chalky mouthfeel and a bitter finish. Flavor is slighlier sweeter then the aroma with an almost peach nectar taste hidden inside lots of grainy cereal and biscuit notes. This was the perfect beer to sit inmy backyard and enjoy after several hours of yardwork. LooseCannon (936), Norfolk, Virginia, USA

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | May 13, 2009 22 oz bottle. Clear orange brown with a creamy beige head. Nose is strawberry jam with a hint of cocoa. Very crisp medium light with sharp suds. Starts with bitter mandarin orange, apple and club soda. Finishes dry with cedar, pith and menthol. Seems a bit brash for a Bitter but pretty good. Carb level could be toned down. greenhorn1 (462), Mission Viejo, California, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | May 9, 2009 22 oz bottle. Not my favorite style of beer, but I just was not impressed. Toasted caramel malt and fruity flavor. A bit watered down with a metallic aftertaste. However, it pours a beautiful clear mahogany color. scrizzz (1325), kirkland, Washington, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | May 8, 2009 Light mahogany with a crazy creamy head. Delicate fruity strawberry head. Seriously. Fresh strawberry in the first sip, what the hell? Second sip too. Say what you will, this is my experience. Fruity throughout with a earthy malt finish. But where’s the bitterness? Very good beer and I really enjoyed it, but more as an amber and less as an ESB. Alasdair (76), New Zealand
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | May 4, 2009 aroma of caramel and toffee, spice, and a touch of marmalade. Excellent carbonation and mouthfeel. Toasted bread-crusts, with a gentle bitterness and a hint of hop flavour. Seriously chewy malt flavour - if you were being kind iit’s voluptuous.
