Sep 6, 2007 (Bottle, Spaniard’s Inn, Hampstead, London, 6 Aug 2007) Clear reddish brown colour with firm creamy brownish yellow head. Malty, fruity nose with dried fruit, chocolate, generous amounts of earthy hops and notes of fruitcake. Malty taste with dark fruit, raisins and earthy hops in a long bitter finish. Balanced sweetness, medium to full body. Nice balance between malt and hops. Great beer.

Sep 1, 2007 Pours amber-brown with fluffy off-white head. Nice aroma of spicey dark fruit, raisin, clove, cinnamon, pear, bubble gum, molasses, oak, maple sugar. Flavor contains much of the dark fruit-spice aroma, but with a surprising bit of hop bitterness. Nice bit of nutmeg in the dry finish.

Aug 5, 2007 Mmmm good. What an English strong should be. Probably just crosses the line from ESB, as it has an undiluted ESB character. Earthy English hops, malty rich aromas and finish. Well balanced and thoroughly enjoyable. Great with a pork chop.
