| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Nov 15, 2005 Decent summer quaffer tasted at my usual haunt, the ’Moon & Sixpence’, Perth. Poured a brilliant, deep orangey bronze with a quickly diminishing, soapy white head that left some legs. Flowery, fruity nose; fresh and fragrant herbs and a strong waft of oranges, very clean and lightly spicy. Tangy, zesty citric fruits in the mouth with a balance of toasted malts mid-palate. Strong mix of apricots, peaches and orange marmalade flavours kept the refreshing mix interesting. Medium bodied and quite sprightly in carbonation. Finish is similarly fruity and malty with a light peppery note, and a metallic zing that may have just been the sample. It otherwise remained fresh and clean. This was easy to drink; quite simple, but it did the job it needed to do, and for that I can’t say anything bad about it. Decent!!! (50cL, 02/08/06) Cletus (5058), Connecticut, USA

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Aug 9, 2006 Pours a yellow orange color with a fairly thick white head and absolutely fantastic lacing. Not much to the aroma. A bit of bittering hops on top of a fairly malty english ale. The American in me wants more hops, more alcohol, more malt, more more more but it’s a solid easy drinking beer as it is. HogTownHarry (4025), Toronto (Harbourfront), Ontario, Canada
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Feb 9, 2007 Bottle (500ml). Shared with mds and tupalev, tupalev’s bottle. Hazy orange, smallish bubbly-frothy head. Soft, earthy bready yeast aroma, sweet but light. Very grainy and soft taste, odd hint of orange zest in it, sweet aftertaste. Light yet full body, wheaty and mildly malty, not much carbonation - a little sweet for an ESB, but pleasant. dkoonce (889), People’s Republic of Athens, Ohio, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 5/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jun 5, 2009 Bottle. Beautiful copper, clear, with a massive head that laces well. This is what a beer should look like. Peaty-malt aroma, with very little hop notes. Heavy, but dry, with a bit of a sour finish. faroeviking (6123), BjórtjóðveldiðBjórheimBjórsins, Faroe Islands
