| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Mar 9, 2008 A dark orange to copper color. A slightly musty aroma with some brown sugar, molasses, caramel and some light citrus. The flavor is somewhat sour with a hint of sweetness. Some lemons, caramel, and toffee. Only a hint of bitterness in the finish. This one might have some unwanted age on it but overall a decent session ale. DanielBrown (1919), Birmingham (via Leicester), West Midlands, England
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Sep 2, 2004 Bottle from Waitrose, Marlborough, Wilts. Amber coloured, with a small white head and lacing. Rich toffee aroma. Very balanced session ale. Subtle toffee flavour - slightly dry to finish, with a lingering aftertaste. Nutty flavour + chocolate bunny and jelly goldfish - reminds me of a trip to Thorntons. Overall: quietly effective. Joeh (1908), Buckinghamshire, England
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Dec 1, 2004 Bottle from Sainsburys>. Sweet & malty with a few hops. Not really that nice, there’s worse though, but if people can rate this high imagine if they tried a decent cask conditioned bitter? frankenkitty (1903), Oak Lawn, Illinois, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Mar 27, 2006 Poured with a creamy tan head over a mid-hazed, coppery/orange body. Aroma finds soapy florals over dusty grains. Sharp sourness emerges later with an earthen/herbal tilt. A smooth palate carries an unassuming bittersweet flavor to a sweet & sour finish with light vegetal notes. Not bad... simply nothing much.

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 5/5 | 13/20 | May 9, 2005 Poured from the bottle, a copper brown with a little carbonation, the head disappointingly disappears quickly. The aroma is very strong - of fruity hops and a hint of melon. The flavour is malty, a little sweet in my opinion. On the palate though is the perfect amount of bitterness.
