| 1.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 3/10 | 3/5 | 4/20 | Dec 25, 2004 Bottle: Kind of a floral grassy aroma. Pours an orangish-amber with an insignificant white head. Very weak up front with a real light bitter and nutty finish. Very watery. Not much going on with this beer. Don’t understand the rating above a 3 at all. IJT (40), Carterton, England
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Nov 18, 2004 A nice bitter, good hoppy nose, amber in colour with a fluffy white head. Nothing special, but a good enough drink. PieTaster (32), Humpton, California, USA
| 0.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 1/10 | 3/5 | 2/10 | 1/5 | 1/20 | Nov 8, 2004 Englander’s need to do a better job if they expect beer mad yanks to drink their beer. This stuff is awful. Very good copy of bottled bass. Thin body, slight toasty malt in background with bland hop bite. My local brew pub blows this stuff out of the water.
Waste of $7.99 a six pack.

Could be a nice transition beer for my Bud swilling buddies. matta (1139), Tampa, Florida, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Oct 23, 2004 Bottled: Clear, what a shame, English styled bottle…
This was a step above what I was anticipating. Tanner Jack being another beer that I have passed in the store about a bazillion times and probably had no intention of ever buying… but now I sell it so I figured I better know what it taste like.
Pours a crisp dark amber body and a fluffy cotton white head. The aroma shows the earthy English hops, a bit woodsy, a hint of cedar wood chips bring some spiciness, nice malty hints of walnut, and a light but existent note of lemongrass give Jack some tartness. The flavor mimicked the aroma but there was an addition of leather… I’m serious, there really is as the bottle suggests, a hint of leather.
Overall, I’ve got to say that I would drink this again and I’ll probably buy some for a bachelor party I’m going to tonight. I’ll just have to make certain that the 6pack I buy has been well hidden in the dark…. I hate clear bottles! harlequinn (2745), Tacoma, Washington, USA
| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 9/20 | Aug 15, 2004 Clear amber color with a small fizzy head. The aroma is dry and floral with a hint of honey. Taste is very dry and buttery, I think this bottle may be a tad bit old. Strongly remiscient of old speckled in the buttery malty taste. Not a favorite. sloth (1681), Ceciltucky, Co., Maryland, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jun 13, 2004 Medium sized offwhite head that dissipares rather quickly. Clear copper color. Dry malt nose with a touch of hop flowers. Med/light body. Grainy malt flavor, lightly fruity. Dry finish with a surprising hop bite. Jimmylib (169), old bridge, New Jersey, USA
