A very rich pale ale. This is what pale ales should strive to taste like. It has a dark complex amber color and a distinctive heavy taste for a pale ale. Very good probably in my top 5 for pale ales.

I always enjoy this when I have it at the pub (although it’s been awhile); however, I found this bottled version fairly unremarkable, so I’ll have to agree with RPillsbury that it must be better cask conditioned. It is amber coloured with a good balance of malt and hops flavours (with some nice caramel sweetness), but I found the taste somewhat unsatisfying and the palate a bit thin. I’ll have to rate the cask version soon, because I was somewhat disappointed.

Bottle. This one isn’t as good as the cask version. The aroma is nice with a bit of roast malt to it but I think the flavour doesn’t live up to it. I also found it a bit too thin.

Pours a burnished gold with a tight white head. Aroma features the classic Fullers yeast nose of orange fruit, crisp warm malt and a faint hint of tangy hop. On the palate there is sweet malt reminiscent of baking, orange fruit and a balanced finish of malt, citrus fruit and gentle bitterness.

Bottle -- Pours copper with a modest off-white sudsy head without much retention but lots of lacing. Beautiful malty caramel aroma. Smooth medium mouthfeel. Delicous flavour with lots of malt with a roasted edge. Nice bitter edge towards the end. Very cosy.

On tap. Smells yeasty with some hint of spice. Pours a beautiful caramel brownish color. Flavor is totally well balanced between fruity esters and caramel malt. Goes down smooth and as it warms it has a really great fruitiness going on. Really well put together.
