May 8, 2005 On tap at Muddy Pig, St. Paul, MN. Fresh but faint aroma. Clear amber body with no visible carbonation. Decent sized, creamy, off-white head that is pretty well lasting. Excellent lace. Nicely bitter. A very solid brew.

May 4, 2005 Aroma is very diverse from other English strong’s: tobacco, clove, tea leaf, caramel and honey is detected is what my nose detects. The flavor is subdued and is a flat, but i can pick up some of its qualities such as fig, butterscotch, and malty background. Beer is a brown tea color with some murkiness and has small head.

Apr 11, 2005 Bottle poured an orange/amber-colored body with a creamy, off-white head that lasted in a thick skin and left nice lacing. Held just a hint of carbonation and some tiny particles. Citrus fruit and banana in the aroma, but dominant were caramel/toffee malts. Flavor started sour then proceeded to a roasted malt, caramel & some bitterness at the end. Mouthfeel was the definition of "creamy". One of my notes reads, "I really like this!"... so I guess I’ll be buying it again.

Apr 4, 2005 Smells great - strong malt and good yeast. A bit cloudy. Flavour is rich and slightly vinous with great nutty malts coming through. Mouthfeel slightly overcarbed. Lingering sweet malt finish. A good un.

Mar 15, 2005 Clear copper pour with a quickly dissipating light tan rocky head and plenty of lacing. You can peg this as an English ale blinfolded due to the signature grassy, toasted malt & fuggles hoppy aroma. Mildly sour and coppery notes on the toungue gave way to some nice malty sweetness and a healthy dose of light toffee or caramel. Hop profile was reserved but not hidden with more classic fuggles hop bitterness in the dry finish. Definately not a session brew at 6.4%abv but every indication of alcahol was kept completely under wraps making this a dangerously drinkable ale.

Mar 6, 2005 Cellar temp. Metalic aroma. Clear and copper with a frothy white head. Slightly sweet and rather malty. Finish is very mild bitterness with a residual dry malt extract like effect. As average as average can be, but take this with a grain of salt: it is 5 months past it’s best before date. Must be a long ride to Kentucky.
