| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Apr 29, 2005 Bottled. Orange colour, mediumsized white head. Bitter citric aroma with some skunky notes. Weak maltish flavour with bitterish hoppy finish. Not that special in anyway. Rich carbonation. Jukkabro (3018), Tampere, Finland
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Apr 27, 2005 Coppery color, medium sized yellow head. Caramel, sweet, obviously hoppy and bitter aroma. Thin to medum bodied. Flavor is also good for basic bitter: mildly caramelly, hoppy and some bitterness comes up in the end and lasts. Maybe has little bit of too much carbonation and body is pretty thin, but still good for 3.8%. ThomasE (5178), Copenhagen, Denmark

Aroma is almost as a lager, malty, grainy and just a bit of hops. Flavor is initially malty with some sweetness but ends with a light bitterness. DeepBlack (387), Derby, Derbyshire, England

Mid Redish/Brown. A good solid bitter. Kind of dry in the aftertaste.

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Oct 10, 2004 Bottle from Rai Wine Shop, Harborne, Birmingham. Tawny colour - like an owl. Small pool of froth. Good strong aroma - spicy, hoppy, fruity and malty. Excellent for the ABV. Firm flavour, finishing with substantial battered malt; preluded by hops and fruit in a pleasant concoction. Ends weaker than it begins, but this is a great session Bitter. ante (2941), Stockholm, Sweden

Mateallic and honeyish aroma. Light sweetness. A little boring and uninteresting. Malt, hops, light choco in the flavour. Flavour much better than aroma. Light bitter in the end. Surprisingly good when you look at ABV.
