12oz bottle pours gold with creamy lasting off white head. The aroma is sweet sweet malts, a bit of spicy noble hops and minerals. The flavor reminds me of a Bass. This beer isn’t as malty sweet though. I like the better balance between the sweet and grainy malts and the spice-floral noble hops. Above average carbonation keeps the flavors bright and at the forefront.

Dark amber in color with small head. Nice light flavor. Decent beer, nothing bad about it.

Not much body. Filtered amber color, very boring. Not as hoppy as I wanted. Typical English swill.

Light body, easy to drink. Not a lot of head. Nothing special to note good or bad. Poured a clear amber.

Bottle. Amber, little head, thin, lightly hopped, no real evident characteristic other than bland and disappointing. This is sent to America only. Little mystery as to why. They think this is appealing to us. I usually find UK beers pretty appealing. Not this time. Smells cheap like Beck’s Oktoberfest. I expected more.

a pretty bland beer, no wonder its only expoted to america. thin, watery with hardly any aroma and taste. very lightly hopped with almost no aftertaste. a beer made to satisfy the US palate.

Pours a clear amber with an off white head. Aroma has some maltiness and little hop. Flavor was somewhat bland with a mild finish.
