| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 18/20 | Oct 15, 2002 Massive head. Someone told me this brewery won some GABF awards this year, so I snagged some of their brews here in NYC. Taste: not really hopped at all. Odd. Not even in the aftertaste. Reminds me of the misnamed ’Welsh ESB’ (which is terrific, by the way). More malty than hoppy, and nice to drink. Perhaps a bit thin? notalush (2661), Denver, Colorado, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jan 24, 2003 Amber-copperish color with a tiny head and an aroma of subtle hops and fruit. The flavor is very floral, with a decent amount of hops, and a slight bitterness lingering within a slightly dry finish. This is a decent beer that would go great with seafood.

| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Dec 28, 2000 Bitters and strong ales along with the IPA’s have become a favorite. Nice nose, big finish, quite robust in its own right. jgb9348 (2499), Arlington (Pentagon City), Virginia, USA
| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 1/5 | 9/20 | Mar 31, 2003 Dark, Dark in colour with an insanely large head. The taste strikes the palate instantly and hits with bitterness and some malt and hops. Soon after the initial taste is a feeling of nothingness, which is somewhat odd given the colour and initial flavour. Not a great beer, especially if looking for a beer a good aftertaste! dirtymike (2018), Manchester, New Hampshire, USA

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Feb 12, 2004 12oz. bottle: This one is kind of a deep coppery amber, almost brown in color. The head on mine wasn't too big, and went down rather quickly. A little bit of a caramel aroma with the hops. The flavor is a good balance of medium malt body and slightly piney hops. Fairly decent. apoptosis (1316), Long Island, New York, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Jan 24, 2003 Somewhat thin body, but full of malts and earthiness. Not really very bitter at all, but its not a bad-tasting beer.
