Bottle. Pours a clear copper color with a small foamy off white head. Nose is light grains and some dirt. Palate is carbonation then slippery. Dirty corny grains and some buttery diacetyl notes and there you have it.

Bottled sample back in August. Went very well with our seafood based meal. Very easy beer to drink. Would like to try it again.

Poured a rich golden hue from the 12oz. bottle: Aromas of caramel, sugar, and butterscotch. The finish leaves a sweet sensation that’s better than the mouthfeel, which is a bit fizzy. Everything is light and faint: aroma, flavors, finish. Crisp bite to it with minute apricot notes. Pretty bitter. #137 on 11102009, DG.

draft. Ringwood yeasty aromas, fruity, malty with grasy hops. Pours amber blonde with a thick white head. I’m not sure if its cause this keg is very fresh but this tastes so much crisper than i remember. Very crisp hop bite, with bready malts. This really is a great session beer.

Has the look of a B/M/C golden yellow exxcept for a puffy white head. Some big carbonation bubbles and a slight haze. Minor lace. The smell is a nice sweet English tavern ale aroma. Sweet, biscuity malt. Bready ringwood yeast adds a nice dry touch. Has the dry quasi-sweet taste of a bitter ale. Has notice of apricot and orange, but in the background. Slight lagery hop bitterness, but not much. Very very pleasant. Wet and thirst-quenching, but with a dry bready finish. Highly "quaffable." A very good session bitter. Sweeter than normal, but well-balanced and smooth.

Bottle. Smells of slight sweet fruit and grain. Appearance of a boring piss pale ale color, but did indeed have good lacing and decent head retention. Primarily tasted hops with each gulp being bitter, but this brew did have a smooth crispy finish. Boring palate, enough said. Overall this is about as average as you can get.

Aroma is nonexistant. Pours gold with white head. Very crisp, with a nice clean bite on the finish.
