Oct 14, 2006 A hoppy McEwans is what I would say. It’s odd for me, an American, to have had such a hoppy bitter, given the prevalence of IPA’s here in the US. This was the second most drinkable beer while in Scotland. It approached color nearing a dark golden lager. Slight white head. I’m not sure about the "delecate hop finish" as described, since having drunk the local bitters, this was a whallop on the tongue when ordered. However, it was an interesting change given the other local offerings.

Oct 9, 2006 Pours clear golden with small head. Aroma of malt and floral hops. Flavour reflects the aroma. Medium body. Finish is short and crisp with low hop bitterness. Easy drinking bitter. Refreshing.

Sep 28, 2006 A bit low alcohol for an IPA. Anyway, dark amber colored. Aroma and taste is very much of lemon and grapefruit. Is it Caskade? A little thin but quite ok.

Sep 17, 2006 shared with mates: Not much of an IPA i hate to say. It’s listed here as a bitter but IPA is in the name. The aroma is alright, malty up front with floral hops. flavor is much of the same. Very balanced and it seems that malt aslmost is more prominent than hops. palate is okay. medium. nothing special

Sep 10, 2006 Almost lagery orange-amber body and thin white head studded with clumps of froth. Intensely sweet, honeyish aroma and dastardly elusive flavour. Is it rose? Honey? Raisins? Chocolate? Most likely the lot, and a dose of crisp hop bitterness thrown in for good measure. A refreshing and complex brew.

Sep 7, 2006 [bottle from ASDA] Hoppy, floral nose, some citric noets and a malty background. I think the bottled version is more aromatic than the cask. medium body, dry finish.

Aug 16, 2006 Nice citrus nose. Average apperance. Golden, clear, poor head, average carbonation. Nice round taste with a - not overly excessive - hopskick in the aftertaste. Overall one of my favorite "easy to drink" IPA’s
