Apr 16, 2009 Crushed with Jakebra. Damn, smells almost like a sour ale with a bunch of nuts added. Great flavor with a very yeasty, nutty finish. An incredibly original and complex brew. Really dug it.

Oct 25, 2007 pours a dark amber with a touch of ruby, medium size egg-shell head.
smell - malts, some hops, toffee, a little coffee.
taste - clean malts, just a touch of citrus and prunes, ends dry and biter.

Jun 14, 2005 Updated: Jun 1, 2006[bottle from sainsburys] pours an amber/brown colour. Nose has a complex malty character, layers of honey, toffee, bread and dark fruits are undercut with a restrained fruit yeastiness and a background hop presence. full bodied, sweet upfront, leading to a dry finish and a touch of bitterness.

Nov 11, 2003 OK Im becomeing a Fuller's fanatic..so this is next in line.
Comes in the great chunky Fuller's brown bottle..as always a simple but great label.
This is a wonderful beer to look at,dark chestnut brown , when first poured a large slightly off-white head..that shrinks but always leaves a nice lace covering.
LOvelly fresh chocolaty roasted malts..I detect some pleasant alcohol too..its pretty nice..some yeast.
An exeptional tasteing brew .. the malts appear first but are not too sweet..smooth and dark chocolaty..later theres a buttery buiscuity taste then some nice alcohol warmth in the throat, to go with the surfacing hops!
Very comfortable in the mouth not over bearing.
A very very drinkable ale..nice stuff.
I have become a real fan of bottle conditioned beers and Fuller's does them best

Mar 3, 2002 Great beer! Beautiful head. Very complex yet it all came together and went down smooth. Not as good as the ESB in my opinion.

Dec 22, 2003 Updated: May 3, 2004Dark brown medium head, stron hops and malts in the nose. Kind of musty actually, but more of warm not moist or damp must. Smooth with currants on the taste, bitter and hoppy on the finish.

Aug 16, 2004 Initially pours big off white head but disappears quickly. Gorgeous deep red/brown color. Complex malty aroma, all about spices. This beer is all about the malt. Full bodied, finish is bitter and the hops come through and linger on the tongue at the end.
