| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | May 10, 2008 Pours a clear pale copper with two fingers of creamy off-white head; nice lacing. The flavor is of dusty, fruity malt, minerals spicy/earthy hops. Light to medium-bodied and soft with a dry mineral finish. The flavor is of fruity, toasty caramel malt with a mildly spicy/earthy hop finish. Fairly fairly complex for 4.7% ABV and similar to Fullers ESB, but along with a decrease in ABV comes a downgrade in mouthfeel and flavor. It’s a solid session brew, but I can’t think of any reason that I’d choose this beer over their ESB. jhagmar (114), Gothenburg, Sweden
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | May 10, 2008 Thanks to ekstedt & friends. Light amber with a white head. Notes of caramel and fudge. Light, bitter taste, somewhat metallic. Very light carbonation. Soft mouthfeel.
ronco (6), Canada does not count | 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | May 8, 2008 Although this beer has a musky somewhat bitter aftertaste, it did go down smoothly. It’s just OK but probably not something I would pick up again. I did not hate it but it was OK. I would recommend it to someone who likes beer with an edge or tinge in it’s taste. mjs (1463), Helsinki, Finland

| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 9/10 | 3/5 | 18/20 | Apr 23, 2008 I wish that this beer was widely available in the States. I had it in a pub in London and I really want to have it again...
A nice light caramel color... its pretty inconspicuous when its first put in front of you, but the flavor is great. Its a sort of a sweet caramel-y flavor that makes it very pleasant to drink. I’m going to be searching for this one all over California... hopefully Bevmo sells it.
