The aroma is malty but also grassy with a hint of paper. The appearance is pale gold with a nice head. The flavor is like the aroma. The palate is thin. Overall it’s not the best.

En fût. Verre de dégustation chez Gritty’s, établissement de Freeport. Arôme: Odeur de caramel avec une pointe d’agrumes. Apparence: La couleur est brune. Présence d’un mince col crémeux et d’une fine dentelle sur le verre. Saveur: Goût de céréales et d’houblons. Durée moyenne de l’arrière goût. Palette: Le corps est moyen avec une texture légèrement crémeuse. Moyenne effervescence en bouche. Légère amertume d’houblon en arrière goût. (Rating #1800)

Draught @ Freeport tavern. Reddish-copper. All about diacetyl, ringwood yeast, and crystal malt. Silky mouthfeel. Solid hopping, decent effort and session potential.

Ringwood yeast aromas, crystal malts, spicy hops with a slight citrus aroma. Pours dark golden colot with a thin white head. Smooth with a good bitterness, sweet malts with a dry finish. Not bad, a good session beer even with the ringwood taste dominating.

12 ounce bottle in pint glass. Clear copper with lasting head and lace. Mild caramel and yeast aroma. Caramel grainy with a medium bitterness. Medium-light body and medium carbo. Authentic English bitter taste. Nice for a session.

My first Gritty’s brew, which I enjoyed in York, Maine. Poured a clear amber colour with a decent sized off white head. Aroma is a battle between sweet and hopped. Taste is initially sweet but tapers off into a pleasently mild bitter flavor. Taste is moderately carbonated, fruit forward and not overly acidic. Decent beer :)

Bottle from Super Saver in Pennington, NJ. Pours amber with an off white head. Aroma of bready malts and seeping grains. British like in body and carbonation, but more american in texture. Flavor of toffee, caramel, and slight citrus. There is a balancing herbal bitterness that carries through to the finish, which has some slight butteriness. This is actually a fairly decent interpretation of the style. Put this on cask and I might get flashbacks of being back in the UK.
