| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 16/20 | Dec 7, 2005 Huge, offwhite, creamy head; clear, brown body with ongoing
carbonation. Faint, harmonic aroma of resiny hops and some malts,
maybe some bready notes. Taste is extremely smooth, of slightly
roasted, faintly smoky malts, with a lovely, crisp aftertaste of
resiny hops, and maybe some citrus hops. The taste is very balanced,
and nice. Some bitterness. Not the most complex, or fancy-tasting beer
I’ve had, but exceptionally well made, and highly drinkable. Highly
recommended! illinismitty (1800), Nashville, Tennessee, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Dec 7, 2005 A british ale typical of what you would find at countryside pubs in England. Pours light brown, with little head or carbonation. Light fruity and sweet malt aroma. Not a very bitter beer when compared to american standards. Pretty even balance of hops and malt, with a mild hop and pepper finish. Not much body, but that is typical of many english regional ales. Us American beer drinkers are used to much more body. But I enjoyed this beer. Very smooth. Reminded me of my last visit to Stratford upon avon. TheGrandMaster (1872), Auckland, New Zealand
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Dec 4, 2005 Poured from the bottle, a light brown with a head that disappeared very quickly. A rick malty/flowery aroma. Malty again in the flavour with a little carbonation in the mouth. Hendo (110), Sint Anthonis, Netherlands
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Nov 29, 2005 Top brew this. A good feet up and relaxed drinking beer, but as a few other reviewers have said it needs more body. PhillyBeer2112 (2089), Orange Park, Florida, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Nov 20, 2005 Enjoyable british ale. A nice lightly fruity aroma, hint of persimmon and caramel. Flavor well balanced with a nice easy palate. Just a kiss of spicy hops. I almost feel like I get a touch of smokiness in the finish. True amber color, full head. Nekronos (2265), Xalapa, Mexico

IT was nice. SudsMcDuff (1704), was CapeTown,SA-now Houston, Texas, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Nov 9, 2005 Poured with a beutiful healthy glimmering head, Dark golden Orange color, and this brew has great lacing qualities! Bitterness is very nicely done, nice fruity smell, good pleasing after taste, all in all...enjoyable. Otje (668), Leiden, Netherlands
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Nov 9, 2005 nice ale. fruity, hoppy smelling golden beer. tastes citrussy, grassy, bitter, sweetish and caramel malty. finishes bitter and fairly long. nicely balanced, but it could use more body (that would make it really great).
