Oct 18, 2004 A drink this beer at my school in a doggy-bag because of the alc-policy, so my knowledge of the app. is limmited! The aroma is sweet with hint of hops. The flavor sweet with malt and hops and comes with a bitter after-taste. It is very powerful, but balanced and round. A classic english fine ale, not to forget the fact, that it is organic.

Apr 24, 2007 Bottle from Whole Foods on Old Milton. Okay, I am new at this rating of beer, but this Ale tastes & looks good. Letting it warm up a bit is the best thing I could do for it. Tastes a bit nutty (?), weak head, but good aroma. I like this one and will purchase again.

Apr 23, 2007 Bottle from LCBO. I will grab an armload of this while it is still so wonderfully fresh.
The hops - or something - remind me a little of the slightly ’wild’ flavour of Algonquin Country Lager from many years ago. Just a very fresh natural tasting Ale with a good infusion of expressive character hops.

Nov 11, 2006 Murky copper body with a finger of off-white head. Smells like malt and Enlish hops. Tastes malty with a fair bit of hops. Flavor is not overpowering... Medium bodied... Rather tasty IMO. A solid ale.

Mar 11, 2008 500ml bottle, 5% a/v
Gorgeous beer, deep copper red colour with a stunning tan head which exudes the beers aroma very well, and laces quite beautifully. The aroma itself is sweet, caramels and fruity warmth, with a slight hop aroma. The beer tastes of bananas, apples, mild malt and slight floral hoppiness. This is a very interesting beer, and one I would recommend.
I would be interested to try another beer made with the "Plumage Archer" barley.

Jun 25, 2007 Updated: Jan 27, 2009500 mL. Cloudy, dark iced tea color with a large, lasting head. Aroma is spiced brown sugar. Flavor is an excellent balance of the same malty caramel-brown sugar and dryish yeast and the right dose of bitter herb hops. Palate is smooth, medium bodied and slightly dry, with a watery finish. Underrated.

Aug 5, 2006 Pours a pretty dark copper color with minimal head. Caramely, toasted notes in the flavor with a moderate balanced hop flavor. Somewhat heavy, but very nice. Overall a good one.

Sep 6, 2005 Well if HRH drinks it - you’ve gotta try it and your wife will buy it for you! Pleasantly surprised. Organics are usually awful for me, but aside from a disappointingly bland aroma, this is an attractive beer with decent (if not everlasting) head and a full rounded and balanced palate with definite hazelnut notes and a refreshing dryness. Waitrose bought I think.
