Just like a dirty single mum, it gives great head! Smells really strong (sweetness and alcohol). Dark/golden brown colour (a bit like mock tudor). Very bitter tasting, with a funny palate. Its a grower.

A nice looking nitro-head, shaving cream, cool looking color. Pretty boring really. Not bad but not really good.

Had this on tap, not a bad English pale ale but not great. Ok to drink in bulk, has a sweet caramel/malt flavour and a medium bitter finish.

Nice color, strong foam, sheets rather laces. Flavor is pretty weak as is the carbination. It’s alright for a steady drinking, but doesn’t have as strong a flavor that I would like.

What I would term as a somewhat average British beer. Not bad, not great, but pretty good. As someone pointed out below, does have some intersting lager-ish characteristics, though, the bite and the clarity, and is best served somewhat cold.

When I first learned to like beers other than Miller Genuine Draft, this was one of the first I took a step up to (and it was one of the only better-quality beers ones I could get in rural Pennsylvania at the time). Now its very average. Soft head of caramel-ish foam, slightly thin composition. First taste on a clean tongue seemed like it had flavor, but then it was gone. Creamy texture, (not quite as much as Boddingtons). (on tap, University College bar, Oxford)

Dark golden coloured with medium disappearing head. Sweet caramel aroma. There is some caramel in the flavour and a bitter finish.
