Orange-copper brown color, small mostly vanishing white head. Odd stale aroma: ash and paper with hints of orange. Typical Shepherd Neame -flavor: nutty hoppy with "hard water mouthfeel". Ashy with light citrusy fruityness (mandarin) in the finish. Overall quite light - propably is much better from cask, now gives out very "filtered" and lame clean flavors. This beer is propably ok after sauna or with spiced food. MesandSim (5912), London, Greater London, England

Tastes of regurgitated tobacco. Amber with no head. Poor palate. Comically bad. Really can’t face it. Gethinbeer (1003), Nova Scotia, Canada

The aroma is hoppy and the initial flavour has notes of clover, melon and honey. It’s crisp and quenching all the way through and it has a nice long finish. A nice summer beer!

Smells of hops - not just of hoppy beer, but of real hops. Very complex taste, gingery, hoppy, malty, none of it overpowering. Actually, there’s guava in the taste! Probably a great session beer, as it has no negative elements at all.
