Deep copper colour with thin beige head. Slightly sweaty hop aroma. Red fruits and slightly yeasty. I like the aroma. Some caramel. OK in mouth and then more drying tangy hop. A nice premium bitter Magicdave6 (5559), London, Greater London, England
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Aug 17, 2006 Arom a is balanced malts with fruity herbal notes. Taste is similar very easy going. Not the most intresting of beers but perhaps the most sessionable of the theakston range. imdownthepub (5188), Banbury, Oxfordshire, England
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Apr 7, 2006 Bottled, pasteurised, 500ml. Orange amber with carbonated head. Tremendously different to the cask, this is rather a thin, fizzed beer with a strained boiled hop note and a sweetish mid malt body. Lacks depth and subtelty. pivnizub (5106), Bochum, Porúří, Germany
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | May 16, 2007 Bottle: Copper coloured, smaller, firm, lasting and lacing off-white head; spicy hops in the fruity-malty, slightly caramelly nose; light to moderate sweet-bitter flavour, light bodied, but not watery; drier malty-bitter finish. Nothing wrong with this, but lacks a bit complexity......... anders37 (4796), Malmö, Sweden
