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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Dec 4, 2007 500ml from LC. Reddish yellow colour. Seems like an average but competent commerical Brit ale, maybe a notch better than the iffy ones but unmemorable. Less merchandising more character pelase.
