| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Jul 20, 2007 1 pt. 09 fl oz (US) bottle. Expiration date: Oct. 24, 2008.

| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Jul 19, 2007 Supposedly I got this fresh, but it looks like I had a different beer than most. Pours tawny brown with a sudsy / rocky tan head. The aroma has bready toffee, smooth caramel and dates - thick and rich aroma. Medium / thin body with some fairly sharp carbonation. The flavor starts with some toffee along with astringency and light biscuit. The finish is earthy, more astringent and highly medicinal. This really seemed old, but it was from a freshly delivered case. tangentrider (144), USA

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Jul 19, 2007 Ruby/brown with thinner head. Dried fruits, toffe rasins and vanilla are all featured. Thinner bodied, lite hops and a drier finish. Roasted malts, chocolate and caramel flavorings all add depth and complexity to this ale. djd07 (733), Houston, Texas, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jul 17, 2007 Bottle as shown. Pours a cloudy dark tan color with a medium light tan head. The aroma is a strong roasted malt and caramel. The taste is a watery malt with a good finish. Very easy to drink enjoyed this one. DenverLogan (421), MileHi, Colorado, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jul 14, 2007 Semi cloudy mud brown; small lingering head. Straw and earth aroma. Rich, bitter, full bodied with notes of malassas, caramel, bitter hops, alcohol and wet cardboard (probably not the freshest bottle). Not as tasty as the Vintage, but decent. mgumby10 (1850), Jupiter, Florida, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jul 12, 2007 Pours a cloudy dark amber with a small off white head. Smells very fruity, berries, grapes, plums, with a nice malty backbone. The taste is very easy drinking, pretty malty, with a little bit of sweetness. Definitely some bitterness to this beer as well. Pretty complex, alot of different flavors abound. Nice English brew.
