| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 13/20 | Dec 20, 2007 Pretty good English style ale. Nice light malt-toffee and a dusting of hops. GREAT session beer. TheGrandMaster (1860), Auckland, New Zealand
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Dec 17, 2007 Bottle from supermarket in NZ, poured a clear amber with a bubbly yellowish head. A warming malt aroma with a slight tartness and a touch of ginger (this could be the result of the travel). A strong earthy malt flavour with a full mouthfeel and a smooth palate. The finish becomes more dry and hoppy with the malt giving more toffeeish characteristics. Good enough to make me wish I had tasted a less travelled version. beerbomb (172), New Jersey, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Dec 17, 2007 Pours amber with small creamy head. Malty grainy aroma with some woodiness and maybe a tad of hop fruitiness. Flavor is fairly weak with some grainy maltiness and bitter hops. Palate is dry and fades very quickly. Drinkable, but not what I look for in a good ESB. daniel0017 (232), Ontario, Canada
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Dec 15, 2007 5oomL bottle: Light amber, fizzy, decent head. Flavor is bitter, dry like grapefruit juice. Lends itself well to salted stuff. Refreshing and crisp. berkshirejohn (1819), Bracknell, Berkshire, England
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Dec 12, 2007 500ml bottle from K-Citymarket, Vantaa, Finland. I didn’t come all the way to Helsinki just to find this beer, but it was a pleasant surprise to find it in the supermarket.
Gold with a loose white head; intense grapefruit aroma; sweet caramel body, thick and chewy with rich fruit - dates and figs; tghe finish is long and bitter but not overpowering. An excellent Yorkshire bitter. dancatts (91), Pennsylvania, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Dec 10, 2007 Nice golden color with minimal head. Flavor was dry and slightly bitter with a nice lingering aftertaste. Overall this was a little more than I expected from this one. ako (154), Turku, Finland
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Dec 7, 2007 Amber, rich head. Even aroma has rich and crisp hoppy bitterness. Surprisingly smooth considering the amount of hops. Refreshing, but not too exciting.
