Jan 17, 2009 Came in a clear bottle, in between yellow and orange. Has that typical English toffee palate. Malty/doughy nose. Not much happening here, but fine as a session offering.

Dec 30, 2008 12 ounce bottle from Market Street Wineshop Downtown
Charlottesville, VA. Pours an amber color with a large, creamy
head. Good retention and very nice lacing. Very malty and
slightly grainy aroma with the faintest hint of hops. The taste
is very similar, but with some toffee and a tart finish. Creamy
mouthfeel and medium bodied. Finally, a beer from Greene King
that doesn’t completely suck.

Dec 27, 2008 A good version of an english bitter with a bit of a bourbon/scotch like finish... Not too complex but definitely tasty... Alcohol is just right to make it relatively sessionable but the finish detracts from the sessionability slightly...

Sep 25, 2008 355 ml. Clear copper with a small creamy disc atop that deposits a delicate frost all over the pint glass. Some light skunk fades away into a nice aroma of toffee, toasted spicy wood, apple and a whiff of orange. Flavors of musty leather, caramel, cinnamon-apple, earthy-spiced wood, and toasted pecan lightly drizzled with brown sugar. Good flavors and balance in this nice session ale. Light body is watery, dry on the finish and lightly hop-tingly.
