This is a re-rate. I just had a can (pint) of this stuff, and really enjoyed it. I think the first tiem I had it, it was after a few other beers and my opinion was a bit offset. As far as specifications: aroma is a bit average, but still tasteful. Appearence is a nice brown, honey coloration. Small deminishing head. Flavor is crisp on the front end, with slight bitterness on the backend (which for me is pretty much how I like it). It rests nicely on the palate. I think I’ll have another!!

Can. "Premium ale". Pours a light chestnut-orange colour. White thin head. Aroma of hops, some fruit. Taste is clean crisp, some sweet maybe lemony, vinegar, either way it’s acid. Then the hops,little bit bitter. Then the sweetness and dusty sweet finish. Not something that I’d go out of my way to get, but good to drink when there’s nothing else.

This beer is good in a bottle, but on tap, WOW. Mild fruity aroma and crisp fuil bodied taste. Nice complex (but not overwhelming) aftertaste.

Tap, bottle, can. The best way to drink a Bass is from the cask. From the keg it’s terrible. If you can’t get cask-conditioned Bass, then the bottle is the next best way to go. Pours nice with a nice, creamy head. Nice copper colour. A tiny bit of an aftertaste, but nothing too offensive.

copper and bread like elements to its indital aroma. My Bass poured out of the glass with a good deal of head but this vanished quickly. the taste is a bit bitter but light...maybe a bit thin in body for my taste. A solid pale ale aftertaste is experienced upon completion. Not great but better than most mass produced ales

Bottle at blind tasting. Copper colour. Not sure but could be pasteurised. Some cereal flavour. A bit dull. British bitter I would guess. Some herby hop. Hey, I got 2 things right. Its a British bitter and it was pasteurised.

Tap. Light reddish-orange, not much head. Thick and slick. Strange bitter-tangy-bready taste that I can’t really describe well, but that I like by virtue of it tasting different than most beers I’ve had.

My dad loves bass, and i have to say it is high on my list of nice tasting bitters my dad used to give me as a kid, hehe. Id recommend it to anyone who aint drunk it before, or dont know what bitter tastes like,
