Sep 2, 2009 355ml bottle into pilsner glass. The beer has a clear copper-amber body with a small off white head that didn’t last. The nose is malty with caramel notes and a hint of citrus. The flavour is mellow caramel malts with subdued fruity hops. Finishes with a light dry hop bitterness. Light to medium bodied for the ABV with an easy refreshing drinkability. Reminds me of a James Squire Amber Ale. A decent "lawnmower" beer but it is rather pricey in Australia.

Sep 2, 2009 Bottled, 355ml from Bellingers Garage, Grove, Oxon. Red amber, carbonated, with white head. Smooth and fruity on the nose which carries through to the body, which presumably is what they mean by ale characteristics, some gentle hop notes in with a darker roasted maltiness. Easy drinking if a little mundane.

Aug 30, 2009 Had this out of a plastic cup @ Orioles Park. Medium hopped amber with full foamy head, and malt sweetness. I wouldn’t have guessed this was a California Common.

Aug 30, 2009 really not much aroma, nice light amber colour with of white head. Hint of caramel and fruit but finishes dry and almost earthy, like a larger should. Overall a nice, easy to drink beer.

Aug 28, 2009 Pours amber with an off white head. Aroma is caramel, with some hints of light malts. Nice amount of caramel and hints of chocolate and toffee. Very good for a steam beer.
