Captures the soul of beer. It has a maltiness that reminds you that beer is a product of the soil. Balance of malt and hops.

Fruity and butterscotch nose. Brownish amber color. Soft malts, not much bitterness, little metallic. Good body. Decent English ale...

Samuel Smith’s Old Brewery Pale Ale is pretty good. Malty and a little bitter but good.

bottle. another one of those beers that smelled awful but tased darn good. amber brown color with some carbonation. this beer grew on me as it warmed. this beer only has an alcohol % of 5 but it tastes much stronger than that. kind of like a wine. dry after thought. good beer.

Bottle. Pour a reddish amber a little cloudy with an off white head. Aroma was sweet and a bit yeast/doughy malt aroma with some fruit. Flavor was a smooth malt taste with a little hop crispness.

Bottle... Poured a foggy ruby with an off-white head. Malt and wine-like aroma. Smooth palate with flavors of cocoa, toasted malt, toffee and subtle hops that make it really nice. Pretty tasty. Sorta leafy malt in the finish.

Sweet aroma, slightly fruity, with the doughines of yeast thrown in. Nice brown/red appearance. The flavor is malty, the finish has a crispness in it, mainly due to hops. Medium mouthfeel. Decent beer overall.

550ml bottle. dark amber brown...looks good in the light of the sun. a little hoppy and bitter. i expected it to taste stronger by it’s appearance. slightly malty and really smooth...not a very deep palate though.

Average color, the mouthfeel was much less than expected. I have to say this was a good beer but thats it, good. I would drink this again, but I won’t go out of my way to get it. Solid choice for someone looking to expand their tastes from the mass brewed.
