Whelk (124), Sheffield, South Yorkshire, England Jun 20, 2007 Bottle--known as Dutchy Originals Organic English Ale in the US, it pours a deep coopery-ruby with a creamy off-white head. Aroma is earthy, light citrus fruit and malt. Flavor is caramel, light orange/fruity, and is quite smooth. aknod (16), USA Jun 17, 2007 worth trying. solid, balanced and is not heavy on the palate or your gut. It froths nicely without the overburdening head that never ceases. One characteristic is its clean tasting properties which draws attention to the care taken to produce the beverage. Brownish in color, almost an amber hue. Enjoy! Boutip (2334), Gatineau, Quebec, Canada Jun 13, 2007 Bottle: Poured a deep slightly cloudy amber ale with a nice foamy head with average retention. Aroma of fresh English hops is quite interesting with nice dose of light caramel malt. Taste is quite dry with some English hops coming out quite clearly with a nice base of English caramel malt. Body is full for the style with some adequate carbonation. MarkoR (224), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Jun 9, 2007 Very generous white foamy head. Pours a copper color. Aromas of spices. Good. jerc (3861), Toronto, Ontario, Canada May 16, 2007 Bottle from England via Tupalev. Amber body with a good sized fluffy white head. Lightly earth malt and hops in the aroma is very "English", light green note to the hops. Sweet bready malt is ever so slightly toasty up front, and hops are subtle at first, but once you pick up on the subtle orange of the hops it is ever present, dancing along with light caramel malty flavours. Average, not quite medium palate suits the beer. Very nice. A touch more hops would suit my palate better, but this is a very nice beer that I could see drinking many pints of in a London pub. SoylentBlack (100), Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA May 16, 2007 A quite interesting ale. Hoppy, but I’m not sure at all what type. A bit of sour. Long lingering subtle bitter. Picture a fuller, heavier Bass. Not something I’d drink everyday, but a great change up when I’m bored with my everyday favorites. Radek Kliber (3926), Toronto (Can) Krotoszyn (Pol), Ontario, Canada May 9, 2007 Bottle 500 ml (LCBO)
Amber in colour with golden hints, good well sited crown on top.
Good, clean fresh hoppy nose well supported by malty character below. Aroma set up simplistic but in this case worked well. (6.75/10)
Medium bodied ale with clear yet short burst of green bitters, woody with acidic oak notes. Tangy finish with soapy hop blend. This ale has some character but missing true soul of greatness.
Quevillon (1518), Sainte-Thérèse, Quebec, Canada May 8, 2007 Bouteille de 500 ml. Rousse claire, petit collet. Légé arome d’houblon sucré, un peu amère. Goût simple d’houblon sucré, peu d’amèreturme. Facile à boire!
