Deep amber coloured with a slight white head. A fairly standard bitter, with some fruit and caramel in the aroma, followed by a sweetish flavour with some marmalade, earthy hops and a short bitter finish. Good.

Amber golden coloured fruity bitter, smooth on the palate. Slightly bitter dry creamy finish. DanielBrown (1919), Birmingham (via Leicester), West Midlands, England
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Mar 29, 2005 Hand pulled at the Anchor, Birmingham, during their Archers weekend. Orange bitter, with a nice roughly fluffed head. Good citric bitterness - full flavoured and quenching, with a nice length finish. Hoppy, prickly fruit mouthfeel. Strong and nice - a notch above the crowd and easily the best Archers beer of the night. Spiesy (2333), Global Citizen, Greater London, England

Deep hoppy aroma. Smooth malts settling into deep green, sour, hops finish. [This beer was just called Maypole, and at 4.5%, served in May, but looks similar enough].

Huge floral citric aroma. Bold citric rush in the flavour with a juicy orange base. Good, clean and refreshing. Damn fine ale.
