Jan 4, 2005 Another beer I tasted, before I knew about RateBeer. Years ago it displayed fine character, with a sweet full bodied palate and rounded fruity hop bitterness. This sample faired along my rating for ESB (in fact I have the recipe for both, and this did not come close), disappointing. I must have had bad samples because the aroma in this one was like the seaside, with little malt sweetness. Palate was generous with a little malt sweetness, roast grains about the side, and a short slick aftertaste. No hop tones, fruity esters or malt driven definition. Hopefully, just a bad batch!

Aug 12, 2004 Typically when I think of a pale ale, I think in the veins of Alpha King or burning river, not of the English variety. Even my first of the ’great’ English breweries pale, Sam Smith’s, I was left with an unenjoyed taste. Perhaps it was the warmth. However, with this beer, I was left with the tastes of slightly overripe orchard fruits, backed up with nice, gentle aromatic hops and bittering hops and a meaty malt backbone. In all, I enjoyed this beer, much to my chagrin.

Aug 10, 2006 Pours a copperish brown with a cream colored head. The aroma has a touch of caramel malt and some light fruitiness. The flavor is initially caramelly sweet and finishes with a moderate bit of hop bitterness.

Nov 19, 2008 Ok. Sweet malts on the nose. Decent maltiness in flavor, but hardly any hop presence. Gets sour in the finish.
