Aroma is smokey, peppery, fruity, complex as hell. Taste is fruit, malty sweetness, and hops bitterness. Finish is bitter, and alcohol is not noticable. A well balanced ESA with obviously a lor of care put into the brewing. Well done Fuller’s. Marsiblursi (1646), Göteborg, Sweden

| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Dec 1, 2006 This is an incredibly good beer. An aroma of fruit cake spices, raisin bread, chocolate, and toffee. Appearance was a nice, deep chestnut brown/cherrywood red combo with a nice fluffy head. The palate is rich and warming, full-bodied and incredibly smooth. Flavors were a tasty combo of sweet malts, raisin bread, spiced cake, dark chocolate, toffee and cream. Just another great beer from the guys at Fullers. The Brits come thru yet again! wetherel (1627), Encinitas, California, USA

Nice color. Above average beer I like it. I’ve seen it at the stores for a while, but this is the first time I’ve tried it.
Rerate: 4/11/08. Nice malty aroma. Easy to drink everyday beer. Exact same rating.
