Oct 4, 2009 Plentry of roast flavour and body and a good aftertaste of blackcurrants. Taste lingers well on the tongue and throat. As supermarket label beers go, this is one of the best and currently on sale at £1.00.......

Apr 15, 2009 Very lively pour, with a deep amber colour. Muted malt aroma with some dusty hops. Flavour was sweet, with chunky malts, dried floral hops and a short, bitter finish. Ok, but this was subdued all round.

Jul 19, 2008 Light amber colour with a small white head. Smell of flowery hops with a flowery hoppy taste.

Aug 5, 2007 Bottle 500ml. I picked up three Shepherd Neame bottles yesterday, a 1698, a Whitechapel Porter and this Gentleman Jack. The 1698 was great, the Porter was crap, so what was this one going to yield? Well, it pours a good translucent brown with a medium white head. A slightly fruity aroma with hops. The taste was okay, a fairly standard brew, but not quite a premium bitter. I found it a little thin on the palate.

Jan 28, 2007 Clear chestnut pour with a generous dimpled white head. Soapy caramel nose. A promising combination of caramel malt and leafy hops largely ruined by a stale cardboardy back-taste.

Jan 9, 2007 Bottle, pours burnished copper colour - almost ruby - with a foamy white head. A pleasant rich malty aroma, but the flavour is more dominated by hops that cut through the richness and caramal malt. On the downside, I agree that it is a little thin and has a slight metallicness. Better than most Shepherd Neame brews though, and surprising that they have let it be branded Asda.

Dec 4, 2006 Sweet bitter aroma. Dark bronze with a medium carb. Thin to no head. Malt flavour, fizzy on the mouth. Slightly metallic. Feels a bit thin, I expected something better.

Nov 20, 2006 I say! What a little truffle in the Asda dirt! A lightweight, but crisply bitter and refreshing little filly. Whatsmore, its a steal at just over a quid. This is like a common trollop, easy on the palate and game for a fiddle, but you wouldnt want to take it home to your mum. Bring it on, I say!
