One of my all time favorite beers. Buy over and over again if in need of something easy to have a couple of. Very nice color and taste.

Bottle. Pours amber / brown. Aroma is sweet, caramel. Flavor is malt, caramel. Finish is dry. A good beer when choices are limited.

Pours dark amber with 1 finger head. Good lacing as well. Aromas of molasses and malt. Flavour contained a good complex malt character- but thats about it. Enjoyable, but not extraordinary.

Golden amber. Off white thick head, but very short. Aroma of malts and some light hops. First sip is same. Nothing outstanding, but not bad either. a decent session beer.

On tap. Unfortunately, had along side a pint of Pliny. Nose, flavor and everything else was quite bland. Not bad, and probably a good session beer.

Amber pour, little aroma. Slight bitterness, hoppiness, but nothing extraordinary. A good session brew, and a solid average for the style, but behind Fullers and Sam Smith (IMHO) for an English Bitter that is available most everywhere.
