Small head that does hang around for a while. Has a doughy aroma to it that is real nice. Has a sweet, fruity taste to it and a hoppy finish. I would recommend this to others.....I have not been disappointed by a Young’s product yet. FROTHINGSLOSH (2038), GREENSBURG, Pennsylvania, USA

Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a medium golden color with a medium sized white head. The aroma was odd - almost smelled sweaty. The flavor was some sweet malt with light hops and a fairly rough finish. roder60 (1030), Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jul 23, 2005 Poured a deep orange color with a small amount of foamy offwhite head. Aroma was floral and hoppy, flavor malty with a slightly bitter finish. Warming alcohol prescence. Overall, pretty good. Kinz (2215), Glen Allen, Virginia, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jul 13, 2005 Perhaps the first beer from Young’s I’ve really enjoyed. Coppery orange, small but lasting smooth head. Aroma was a bit sulphury, with a bit of a floral note. Flavors were mostly toffee oriented malts, with some undefined fruitiness, touch more sulfur, and a balancing bitter finish. This is Brit hoppy - readily apparent, but not beating you about the face. Enjoyable change of pace. TheBeerCollector (548), Woodstock, Georgia, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 4/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Jul 10, 2005 This beer looked and smelled much better than it tasted. The flavor is very confusing with a nice hop presence up front which quickly gets overpowered by a lactic, musty maltiness that is not very pleasant. I was hoping for more from this beer becuase of the great things I had read about it. Belgo (146), Køge, Denmark
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 15/20 | Jul 9, 2005 Draught. Coppercoloured. Earthy very hoppy aroma with some maltiness showing through. Powerful hop flavour and good bitterness. Some caramel in the aftertaste. DiscoForever (69), Dunedin, New Zealand
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jul 9, 2005 Aroma: Fresh hops, creamy sweet malt, a little fruit, vanilla and butterscotch - soft and inviting. Taste: nice bitter/ full round caramalt, sweet too, best English drop I’ve tried I think - very drinkable with noticeable hop smack and a tingly zing across the palate. Long lingering bitter aftertaste - like an IPA! Will try again (next time not at 3 in the morning!). Extra points for new labeling. pootzboy (1048), Hawgville, Ontario, Canada
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Jul 5, 2005 An amber orange ale with a small cap and generous natural carbonation from bottle conditioning. Wonderful aroma of sweet bready malts and fruits. Generous chewy maris otter malting with dry fruity notes, sprkling , fresh tasting with a cidery finish. A very nice ale...malty yet dry and refreshing.
