| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Aug 7, 2007 500ml bottle. Pours a nice amber-orange colour with a lot of tan head. The aroma is typical to that of a bitter, with a little alcohol, not that impressive to me. But then the flavour opens up with some nice malts, toffee, caramel, the usuals, but well blended, and it finishes with some strong hops, to give way for the very bitter and dry after taste. A very decent brew indeed. puboflyons (605), New Hampshire, USA

Pungent aroma of hops. Medium mouth feel and an adequate bitter taste. A lingering aftertaste. Not a tremendous brew but it was OK. BDR (2160), Roseville, Minnesota, USA

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jul 18, 2007 500 ml bottle - pours beautiful caramel amber with thick, creamy one-finger head that leaves thick lacing. Big fruity Goldings aroma along with some hay and toffee, and an earthiness as well. Flavour is mainly toffee malt to start then parlays into a lingering dry, dry, dry, bitter finish. Some very faint spiciness from the yeast as well. A fantastic English bitter, and a perfect session beer. badlizard (2345), Berkeley, California, USA
