Orange Amber in colour, floral in aroma. Amazingly well balanced in hops and floral fruity notes, light malts complete the overall effect. Good drinking bitter. Next is the visit to the Brewery to present them with the award, shame :-). omhper (12247), Stockholm, Sweden
| 4.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 10/10 | 5/5 | 17/20 | Jan 21, 2002 Sampled cask conditioned. Amber coloured. Rich aromatichoppy smell. Light bodied, dry and fruity. Notes of hay, delicate light malt profile, excellent flowery, fruity hop flavour. Sparkling mouth feel. A top class bitter, remarkably flavourful for being only 3.8% TheGrandMaster (1870), Auckland, New Zealand

Pours a light yellow, a small head that quickly disappears. Aroma has the right level of hops and is very fruity. Extremely smooth in the mouth and absolutely delicious to taste - those fruity hops coming through strongly. A shame I only had time for one, but I will be back for more!

Even better than I remember this beer. Full on hops and a rounded fruitiness and body. Really one of my favourite beers in the world when it is in this condition. Had it the night before and it was very good, but this had improved by the following afternoon kempicus (350), Wellington, New Zealand
| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | May 28, 2007 A very hard beer to rate, it’s almost perfectly balanced so nothing really stands out and yet it does it’s job so well. It’s fruity but with enough bitterness to balance it. It is a much better beer on cask that out of the bottle! mrbasstrombone (8), Netherlands does not count | 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Sep 1, 2007 A great Norfolk beer, full of flavour! Try a pint direct from the cask behind the bar at the 3 Horseshoes in Warham. A pub where time has stood still. Garrat (1132), Suffolk, England

Burtonised aroma and plenty of "dishwater" (isinglass) as a perfect session beer should. Plenty of raw basic bitterness and a slightly sweet aftertaste craving for more (which I had).
