Orange to red pour with a decent head. Not too bitter, but enough to make me happy. Finishes pretty well.

It’s a good bitter to start with if you’ve never tried one before. It’s not "big" and not overpowering. It gives you a good sense of whats to come, if you choose to drink bitter beers. Enjoyable and fresh.

12 oz. bottle. Golden amber pour with sizable white head. Smells like a pale ale -- some cascade/american hops with some citrus and grain elements. Flavor is of malts, hops, and citrus fruit. Ends on a crisp bitter note. It’s okay, not great.

12 oz bottle. Pours a deep golden reddish color with a small white head. It has a nice malt and honey like aroma. It has a nice clean malty taste with a pleasant bitter aftertaste. This is a very nice beer in my opinion.

Clear light amber with a nice white head. Fruity, citrus, earthy, caramel, ,malty. It is mild and balanced if a bit watery. Very drinkable and pleasant.

Most people in the states know Bass as the other ingredient to a Black and Tan. I actually prefer Bass to Guinness. It is a smooth and crisp ale that is not overpowering in its use of hops.

This beer pours a golden amber with a light white head. It has an aroma of sweet malt with little hops on the olfactory. It tastes of sweet malt, again with little hops, but is not overpoweringly sweet. This is a good beer.
