Jul 3, 2008 Pours a foamy, hazy golden color, almost like a pudding or merengue. Head is slick and foamy, similar to Guiness. Has a distinctly English aroma, english hops, wet basement, unsmoked tobacoo and cut vines. Taste is very creamy, with toffee, english hops, alcohol and sweetness. Pretty good beer, thick and different.

Jul 1, 2008 This is actually a re-rate. I believe that I judged this beer too harshly last time. In fact I am far more worldly and wise now.
There is nothing wrong with this beer. It doesn’t taste of horse-shit and soggy tram tickets. It has suffered journmey of half way around the globe and all the temperature variations that accompany it to get into my pint glass sitting in front of me. I believe that it has held up fairly well with distinct honey overtones, lingering bitterness and a creamy nitrogenated head.
I could live with having a few more.

Jun 24, 2008 Four-pack of cans. Absolutely terrible, I hope it was just a bad batch or poor shipping conditions. I tried not to pour them out so i tried to get my friends to drink them. They all ended up in the same place. Maybe one day when I have a stronger stomach I will give it a try on tap.

Jun 22, 2008 Updated: Jul 8, 2008From a nitro can. Pours a pretty yellow with a nice thick white head. Flavor is OK, a nice minerallly quality to the finish. Overall it’s a bit watery. Drinkable but nothing outrageous.

Jun 21, 2008 On tap at the Hopyard on Nitro, pours medium gold with a velvet smooth head that lingers. The nose and the flavor are a bit sweet, but overall bland.

Jun 20, 2008 Well known in any British pub it fails to deliver. Just a run of the mill bitter. I do have to say that it looks nice however.

Jun 20, 2008 I love how the beer looks. It’s a lot like watching a light yellow Guinness settle after a slow pour but that’s where the enjoyment ended. The taste is so average and boring it put me to sleep. The metallic aftertaste was a nice end to a poor beer.
