| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Dec 28, 2007 Very sessionable and tasty with delicious light alefruits and a nutty complex aroma. Good stuff. Tessic (448), Brantford, Ontario, Canada
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Dec 26, 2007 This ale pours a deep reddish orange colour with a nice white rocky head. To the nose there are scents of apple cider, vinegar and ripe fruit. First taste was clean and smooth. flavours of apples, malt and a little smoke. Finish is a little hoppy with the end, ending with bitter taste to the tongue. Very good. drfabulous (1235), Columbia, Missouri, USA
| 2.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 8/20 | Dec 25, 2007 Purchased when I lived just outside of Royal Oak, Michigan. Very plain, English style ESB. Not for me. Too light. DuffMan (2751), the land of bitumen, beef & beer, Alberta, Canada
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Dec 25, 2007 Hazy orange amber, modest orange-tinted cap. Floral fruity hop nose, some yeasty caramel to back things up. Caramel, a little nutty, fruity yeast, very bitter finish. Only criticism is the body is quite thin, but this lends to drinkability I suppose. A solid bitter. crushinat0r (227), Toronto, Ontario, Canada
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 2/5 | 7/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Dec 25, 2007 Amber in colour, and not much head, doesn’t look particularly interesting. Smells of light hops and a hint of wheat. The taste follows suit, pretty plain with a hoppy.bitter aftertaste. Quel suprise. At least it’s smooth and consistent. Decent beer. shintriad (698), Toronto, Ontario, Canada
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Dec 24, 2007 Nice traditional-style Bitter with a thin, drinkable body and lingering bitterness in the finish. Extremely clean and plain, with a hint of sourness. Good for the style. Nice caramel notes in the nose. garthicus (1274), Toronto, Ontario, Canada
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 14/20 | Dec 21, 2007 Bottle, Can’t believe I had to come all the way to Canada to get this. Cloudy ruby/orange colour, nice, stable head. A definite hop/malt flavour and a bitter/malt flavour with a semi-lasting finish with malt finishing notes, Nice Boutip (2348), Gatineau, Quebec, Canada
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Dec 18, 2007 Bottle: Poured a orangey brown color ale with a large foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma consists of dry malt with some light bittering hops presence also noticeable. Taste is also dominated by some dry malt with some hints of nuts and a nglish hops finish that is also quite dry. Body is above average with some great carbonation. Well done for the style but not necessarily something I would care for very often.
