| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Oct 25, 2004 Cask conditioned - Hobgoblin Oxford -handpump. A light brown coloured beer with lots of citrus hop on the aroma and a real pleasant hoppy taste which is well balanced by the alcohol. A good beer when on song, and this was pretty good.

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Sep 30, 2004 Bottle conditioned, 500 ml. Bought at Memorable Cheeses, Ipswich. No head, very little carbonation. Deep amber colour, hazy (I poured the yeast in). Aroma is hoppy, oaky, slightly spicy. Well balanced flavour, just the right blend of fruitiness, hoppiness and maltiness. Nice hoppy bitterness in the aftertaste. A good beer! duff (5475), Surrey, Greater London, England
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Aug 21, 2004 Bottle. This was great, even out of the bottle. Nose is quite aromatic, with some mandarin, i and i also got some cereally malt. The palate could not have been better balanced, nothing fancy, but balanced. At first, you get a slightly cereally malt flavour, but then some wonderful, flowery, lightly earthy, mandarin flavoured hops, bitter. Nice round mouthfeel. Can’t wait to try it on cask.

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jun 7, 2004 [Cask. The Cavell, Norwich.] A sturdy bitter which does the job. Good bitterness levels and solid fruit, not the wimpy stuff. A traditional style of beer done to the nines. Hildigöltur (5109), København, Denmark
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | May 4, 2004 [Cask conditioned] A very pleasant bitter with lots of hoppiness and fruitiness in it. Refreshing. Ungstrup (15371), Frederiksberg, Denmark
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Mar 15, 2004 The aroma is very fresh hoppy on a malty and yeasty background. The color is a clear orange and it has a beutiful lasting white head. The flavor is also very fresh with on a sweet background it contains strong notes of hops, both aroma and bitter, fruit (oranges), oil, and grass. Before it ends on a great bitterness that leaves a hoppy dryness on the tongue. A great bitter - and mine was even bottle conditioned.
