A nice change to the porters and strong ales i was busy drinking this weekend. It was a crystal clear amber that had a menacingly nice aroma upon opening the bottle. The taste was mildly bitter but a slight disappointment. Very little head and just not as much complexity as i would have expected from the Fuller’s name...good but not great beer.

Golden brown color, medium head. Nice malts, somewhat hoppy. Full flavor. Nice body. Mouthfeel is malty and round. Good hop/malt balance. Smooth. Finish is clean. Aftertaste is malty and bitter.

Original Rating, March 23, 2003: Nice and amber, no real head. Heavy on the apple and hops. A wonderful bitter. 7/4/7/4/17 Re-rating, April 1, 2009: Sigh... one of my very first ratings. And so pathetic. I will always leave my original ratings to serve as an example of how not to do this stuff. Copper color with a medium head. Solid aroma of grain and grass. Very dry, clean malt flavor. Grainy. Moderately bitter, focusing on earthy and grassy hops. An excellent bitter.

A light shade of copper for the colour with a thin (1 centimetre) tan head. The aroma is pretty nice, with a fairly strong hoppyness. Malt and some grassyness or mustyness is also noticable in the smell. The taste is another winner for Fuller's. Almost spot on for the style, it works out to a hoppy bitterness followed by a subtle maltyness. No other complex flavours are noticed either in the taste or palate, but I don't think it's a reason to complain. A pretty high alchol content for a bitter and it is noticable in the end with the bitterness. Pretty good beer, definately worth trying if you are a fan of the style! I bought this twelve ounce bottle at Whole Foods in Vienna, Virginia.

Nice aroma and color start this one off. The official style of this one is "bitter" though Fullers wants to call it a Pale. It seems to be somewhere in between. Less bitter than the Fullers ESB, but a little more than most English pales. The flavor is pretty good on this one, with some hoppiness and a slight "crispness" to it. An all around good beer!

I'm really enjoying these English pale ales lately, the're usually very well-balanced and drinkable. London Pride is a great session beer with a moderate aroma, nice malty caramel flavor, and just enough hops to make it all come together. It may be a bit mild, but it's still a very well-done beer.

Nice malt nose, english hops that I don’t normally like are well done. Very nice beer. Chewy toasted malt, restrained hops, grassy finish.
