| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Oct 21, 2007 An unpretentious beer with luxurious flavors. Hop and malt happily mingle in this golden-amber colored ale. Lingering but clean aftertaste. Scrumptious and highly drinkable. nramsburg (202), New York, New York, USA
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Oct 19, 2007 Nicely hopped strong ale pours to a deep golden wiht a nice sized head. The effervescence is really good on this particular brew, small bubbles which never really overwhelm yet remain for quite some time. It begins with malt which quickly evens out into a smooth, lightly hopped finish. There certainly are hints of banana to be found in this one, but I didn’t notice much orange as the previous posters had suggested. Overall a fantastic beer, though slightly overpriced in this country. onehotsexychic (101), Albany, New York, USA

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Oct 14, 2007 bottle - pours cloudy orange with massive white head bringing out strong aromas of malt, sugar and a little fruit; drinks smooth and sweet with an enjoyable slight bitterness Cryotek (206), Pawtucket, Rhode Island, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Oct 12, 2007 Dark golden honey. Bitter sweet fruity aroma with notes of alcohol. The flavor is strong of a good malt blend - with a nice medium sweetness and a strong bitterness that lasts in the after taste. kegoguinness (45), Dodge City, Washington DC, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Oct 12, 2007 This is a real good session beer. I could sit in the pub with me mates and down this stuff absentmindedly. But, every now and again this brew jerks your attention back to it, proclaiming in a not-so-quiet english way that it won’t stand for the folly of being ignored. This beer has a good, strong flavor and character; a real Winston Churchill of British strong ales. Carry on, lads! freekyp (901), Thomasville, North Carolina, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Oct 7, 2007 Part of an English Bitter tasting in Ocean NJ on 10/06/2007. This one fell outside of the bitter category we had concentrated on in the tasting, but we wanted a style contrast that would display what might happen if a typical bitter were "overdone". This brew wound up being the overall winner, trumping other entries by a wide point spread. Pours a deep lightly cloudy amber with a thick resilient off-white head. Aroma is malt forward with toffee, bread and light floral notes. Nice thick mouthfeel and hides it ample alcohol content well. Finishes balanced, wavering back and forth between malt and hops.
