| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | 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. DocLock (4648), Lower Pottsgrove, Pennsylvania, USA

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.

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | 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. puboflyons (617), New Hampshire, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Aug 6, 2007 1 pt. 0.9 fl oz (US) Bottle. Nice reddish-bronze pour but a bit cloudier than I imagined it would be. It even sounded nice pouring into the glass. Pleasing aroma of barley and hops. Heavy mouthfeel. Delightfully mild, refreshing taste with a hint of citrus but not overpowering at all. It is probably the best brew from Wychwood that I’ve been able to sample and I would definitely buy it again.

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jun 23, 2008 Bottle. Pours an orange/brown, just a small ring of white head. Aroma of honey, pear, raisin, and apple juice. Flavor of wheat, lots of apple, tartness. Sweet, light body, very simple and mellow. This beer is subtle, not in your face with flavor, which is why I liked it a lot. Tasty and light. Delicious.
