Oct 21, 2006 22oz bottle - Pours light copper with a one finger head. It has very little aroma, maybe just a little graininess. The flavor is mild hop and malt in a too thin body. The finish is lightly bitter. This one is definitely too watery.

Oct 4, 2006 Bottled. Light brown coloured with a rather large head. Very mild. Somewhat bitter, fruity and hoppy. Too mild and sharp though.

Oct 2, 2006 Simply put ... a great small beer. Tasty. Aromas are almost non-existent, but this looks like something you want to drink, is nice and smooth and has a wonderfully light and slightly spritzy palate. Always nice.

Sep 30, 2006 Wow, this beer is crapped on by about everyone & it is not bad. It may not be as good as some of their others, but for what it is - its pretty solid. Pours brownish orange with a quickly disappearing head. The aroma has light caramel malt that is a bit earthy and musty. Light body with some prickly carbonation. The taste has light caramel malt and spicy hops - crisp and easy drinking. While it is not an exciting beer it is easy drinking an non-offensive. With the amount of alcohol this would be a very nice session beer.

Sep 14, 2006 Bottle from John, (jjpm74) Thanks!! Man I have wanted to try this forever, because the Anchor beers are what got me into drinking good beer in the first place, so an anchor that for some reason I cannot buy locally is always intriguing. Cant really understand the low rating behind this beer, I have had beers in the top 150 that arent this good . I guess because its a bitter that isnt on cask at the local pub means it gets points taken away. Very lively body and taste. Smooth and refreshing, this is probably a pretty fresh bottle. Some sweetness in the taste, but over all this is a session beer that you could drink a huge amount of. Very refreshing, if I could buy this locally there is no question what I would buy if I needed some session beers.

Sep 9, 2006 Interesting concept, nice history lesson - but why bother? And actually, anyone who has ever re-used a tea bag, or tried re-using coffe grounds could probably tell you - re-using mash - not a good idea. Clear amber pour, minimal head. Flat caramel nose and flavor profile. Some hops. Not on par with other Anchor beers.

Sep 8, 2006 Bottle. Syrupy barley malt aroma. Medium amber with small head. Slightly sweet barley malt with moderate hops finish. Very watery. I now understand what Shakepeare’s Henry VI was talking about.
