Murphy (1759), Fort Collins, Colorado, USA Sep 7, 2007 Pours a clear copper with moderate carbonation. Medium white head, good retention, lacing. Aroma is wet, tangy hops, light citrus, mild sweetness. Almost vinous. Taste is a nice mild caramel with light spices. Spicy hop presence. Body is light with just a slight oiliness. Finishes with light bitterness. A fun, approachable beer.
Jayb0 (690), Cherry Hill, New Jersey, USA Sep 6, 2008 very enjoyable with the flowery hop nose leading to a fruity start immediately mellowing into a smooth, if hoppy, english ale. a drinker. jcweaver (58), VA Beach, Virginia, USA Sep 5, 2008 Great aroma and hops flavor. Has a smooth sweet finish and tastes better than a lot of IPAs I’ve had. This is a great beer. Haslinger (525), Syracuse, New York, USA Sep 4, 2008 12 ounce bottle, the aroma is very, very hoppy. It smells tasty. It’s a dark golden color with a nice off white head. The taste is grassy hops with some underlying malt but not very much. Kind of sweet finish, Good aftertaste. I’m not sure what English Strong Ales are but this tastes a lot like an IPA to me envane (250), Evanston, Illinois, USA Aug 31, 2008 Don’t see how this is a "British style ale". Its tatses exactly like an American style IPA, and not a good one - very sticky for a mere 6.5%. waolsen (963), Littleton, Colorado, USA Aug 30, 2008 bottle. light copper. clarity. foamy head leaves lacing. earthy malts, cut grass, light malt aroma. grainy, earthy hops light. thin on flavor. light sweetness in malts.
