Oct 12, 2009 Bottle. Pours slightly hazy golden amber with a short off-white head. Aroma is quite malty and has notes of citrus, caramel and some tropical fruit. Flavour is fairly similar with an additional woodiness, a hint of apricot and some of the hops coming through at the end. A very good beer with a medium to full body and a nice lingering finish, highly sessionable.

Sep 25, 2009 Bottiglia da 50cl all’Exultate, una discreta ale di Young’s senza troppe particolarità nel bene o nel male (poco amaro, ma era tanto che non bevevo Young’s quindi può darsi che non sia poi un’anomalia della birra quanto una caratteristica del produttore) la gradazione elevata per lo stile - alla fine è una bitter un po’ più spinta - non dà fastidio, anzi quasi non si avverte.

Sep 23, 2009 Updated: Oct 15, 200950cl bottle. This "real ale" has a beautiful, hazy amber colour, with a smallish, creamy off-white head that disappears rather quickly but leaves lacing on the glass. The aroma is rather sweet, of fig, citrus fruit and malt. The fruity character extends to the taste, nicely balanced by a resinous note of roasted malt. Long hoppy finish and aftertaste. A strong premium ale that does not wear the alcohol on its sleeve, so to speak. Beautifully balanced, eminently well-crafted, superbly drinkable beer.

Sep 16, 2009 Gold/amber with a white head.6.4%? They’ve done pretty well hiding that. It’s fairly standard but near the top end of that scale. Malt and hops, little caramel and a little fruit. Not much really but if there was nothing else in the pub, wouldn’t be unhappy drinking this for a night. Good session beer.

Sep 2, 2009 Smells like a very typical bitter, but no heavy alcohol or water notes, which is a good thing, but nonetheless quite average. Looks okay but needs way more head, whatever there was disappeared too darned quick. Has a nice smooth taste, lots of nutty notes, some caramel, but not very complex. Good mouthfeel. Not a bad beer, pretty good for a high alcohol bitter, decent for a night at a pub and a footie game.

Aug 25, 2009 A very nice ale, with colour and aroma to match. Retained only the slightest head after a sip or two, and features a superior taste/flavour. Washed down a LARGE choclate brownie quite handily.

Jul 25, 2009 500ml bottle. Deep orange in colour with a wispy side order of faom floating on top. Aromas of bubblegum and banana lollies with a lively zing in the mouth and a bitter aftertaste. Smooth and drinkable with a spicy hop finish.
