Aroma: Earthy hop, some malt. Relatively clean with some caramel malty notes. Appearance: Creamy head upon pouring. Very clear, Reddish brown color. Flavor: Light malt flavor, not much else. Just basic, clean malt flavor. Mouthfeel: Bitterness present with a light mouthfeel. Overall: Thirst-quenching session beer that is smooth drinking, but not real exciting or flavorful.

golden orange, fluffy lacey head. aeoma of caramel, butter, malt and mild cherry. flavour follows, but is quite thin and doesn’t delivery what the aroma promises(not that it was much). a bit of juicy malt, a bit of earth.

Thin clear amber with a little white head. Caramel malty nose. Light on the hops. Cotton candy sweetness. Not as round as one might expect from Young’s

Golden-brown colour. Light caramelly taste. Fairy quick. Hint of cardboard. This type of by-the-numbers bland bottled ale is why so many Americans (and others) think English ales aren’t very interesting.

Uh yeah, another pommy beer with all the characteristics of an ale that promises a whole lot more than it delivers. Good colour, toffee aroma, caramel flavour, reasonable hop etc etc. But not a beer to make you sit up and pay attention to. Its ok, but at $8 a bottle not one to repeat in a hurry.

Tawny amber body with a beige coloured mostly lasting head. Caramel and a touch of smoke in the aroma. Mild flavour but quite enjoyable, some more malt and smoke again and a pleasant bitterness.

Very red with a good beige head. Swwet fruity aroma. Flavour has metalic tinge and is lacking except for a strong hop bitterness. Thin but thirst quenching.
