Aug 29, 2003 15 Year Bitter. Poured a rich amber color with little, but persistent, head. The aroma has a nice malty fruit character with nice hops in the finish. The flavor is also quite enjoyable. Dominated by caramel and fruity malt, it has a nice balancing hop finish. Flavorful and easy drinking, this is a nice session ale.

Aug 10, 2003 Almost no aroma percepted, even when warm, and then, jsut a smattering of dusty hops. Malt character moderate, fair bit of caramel. Some bittering hops show late, but overall short of character.

Jul 18, 2003 Cedar coloured, very persistent off-white head. Wonderful aroma -> pine, hops, a bit of lemon rind, a good amount of sweet malt to balance. . . Adequate flavour - a good representation of the style and a very nice session ale.

Jul 11, 2003 Vibrant red; light aroma – had to work hard and then only maybe found some earth, slight cherry…these were so light though that ambient aromas really are all you could expect to enjoy as a casual drinker. Predominantly caramelly, with toast, some chocolate malt and a subtley emerging bitterness.

Jul 9, 2003 Berry pepper sprinkled on earth and loads of hops...In a thin body like this, this hoppy overhaul kind of buries the fact that it's not that complex...A grand Marnier-like alcohol appears, although this is not strong at all in alcohol...A puzzling wine of a bitter that should probably be billed otherwise...

Jul 6, 2003 Reddish amber - ruby, small white head. Strangely sweet, light roasted malt, gentle bitterness. Drinkable ESB needs some more depth, slightly too soft as well.
