Dec 27, 2005 Updated: Mar 5, 2006Really hoppy fantastic beer, i could get it on tap at the rising sun in scholar green when they have it as a guest but i decided to also sample the bottle version aswell, excellent beer. Hoppy aroma and hoppy taste, the hop flavour fills your mouth pleasantly, i like hoppy malty beers. Fantastic

Mar 25, 2005 Bottled. This looks great! gold in colour, head is firm and white and lasts well. Nose is clean and fresh, bursts with immense hoppy aromas. WOW!!! that’s some mouthful, big and full flavoured, refreshing & satisfying, finish cuts a bit short, but hey! that’s not a big fault is it? Fantastic stuff, V.W. Kelso £1.79/4 for £6...may not last tho’ knowing that company..PS. can’t understand the low overall percentile score, try it anyway.

Nov 25, 2007 on a hot summer afternoon one might be tempted to order a cold lager ... if he hasn’t got the chance to get hold of an Old Empire IPA that is ... IPA’s are perfect thirst quenchers to start with and this one tops it with a overwhelming taste of fresh hops and a marvelous bitter aftertaste .... a great brew in an impressive bottle ...

Jul 9, 2003 Gold coloured with a lively head that soon goes. Malty and bitter with a lovely lingering slightly sweet aftertaste. I expected more body in an I.PA and was surprised to see it in a clear bottle.Up to the usual high standards that we expect from this brewery with that tangy taste that most of their beers have. Very pleasant but I have got to say it wasn't quite as good as for some reason I had expected.

Feb 5, 2006 Fantastic IPA, an archetype for other IPAs! Orange amber, full of lively hop aroma and flavour, truly excellent.

Mar 24, 2007 Sharp and citric hop aroma and flavours, rich smooth malt, good colour, discernable alcohol. Moreish - carbonation fine for my taste, but agree heartily with HarryFlashman that this is a great beer to go with a curry. Recommended.
