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.

meh. looks good with a nice amberness and small white head. smells alright too, some citrus there. flavor is like they wanted a good balance between hops and malt but are way too in between. just not that great. a little watery to me.

Pours deep amber with a good, beige to cream head. Aromas of honey and yeast with a healthy herbal hop bouquet. Very hop forward flavor but balanced with an assertive malt sweetness. Medium body. Finishes with an unfortunate metallic flavor.

middle of the road stuff. not one of samuel smith’s outstanding beers - drinkable, but flavours are forgettable.

Amber with frothy head. Malty aroma. Balance of hops and malts. Good, not great. A little sour at the finish.

It’s actually kinda nice to just have a beer that isn’t super hopped or smoked or funky. It’s just a beer. A well made, pleasant to drink beer that won’t tax your brain or palate and goes nice with fish and chips. Damn tasty, and you could drink a boat of it.

Odd mineral-y, carbonation-y lingering after-taste. Could use slightly more hops.

Pours amber with a nice head. Aroma is malty and slightly sour. Flavor has some funky hop note along with a nice malt character. Finish is nice and dry. Something is not quite right. Dissapointing from Samuel Smith’s.

Bottle. Amber color with a huge head. A good beer, but I wasnt blown away. I would have liked it to be a little more hoppy. I would drink it again.
