Nice and bitter, dark and bitter and more bitter. I love it! Another I want to try on draft.

Has a hint of fruit in it, and is a bit bitter, but not too bitter. It has a good finish to it. I enjoyed this beer.

This didn’t seem like a pale ale at all. More bitter and stale like a lager. Slight citrus and acidic tones.

Bronze orange appearance with a creamy head and creamy mouthfeel leading me to postulate that this may have been nitrogenated. The flavor was a rather bland combination of amber and pale ale with a sourish underpinning. Smooth and creamy, with some bitterness, a decent blue collar English pub beer I imagine, but underwhelming to the more refined palate.

middle of the road beer works best for that brother-in-law that you hate to give beer too.

Maybe I drank from a bad keg, but this beer sucked bad. It smelled bad and tasted bad, it was foul and offensive. Forget it.
