lemonlovr (187), Lockport, Illinois, USA Oct 30, 2004 Aroma is dominated by a sweet English maltiness (almost reminiscent of a brown ale) with a slight hop note. The appearance is fairly unappealing - coppery amber in color, very clear, with a moderate, slowly dissapating head with a bit of lacing. The flavor is lackluster but not bad - slightly sweet and malty up front with a smooth bittery finish. Full bodied and definitely not thin but the mouthfeel is average for me. A decent "everyday" beer but nothing special.
jkwalking05 (1483), Arlington, Texas, USA Jan 30, 2009 Light amber in color. Head is small and disappears fast. Taste is more hoppy and not very complex. Light pale ale that is not bad but not great.
Snojerk321 (1935), San Diego, California, USA Jan 30, 2009 12oz bottle. Pours a medium gold color with a good sized off white head.Malty aroma with some earthy hops. Finishes clean and dry. A little hard to pin down, fairly average for an ale. Refreshing but nothing special, kind of an old bottle so its my fault. BlackDonald (1127), Boise, Idaho, USA May 22, 2008 Not much to this one, its flavor are solid and uncomplicatedly simple, and it is quite drinkable, just not very exciting. Caramel flavors backed up by a bit of hop bitterness in the finish. Very light with a fading aftertaste. HughConway (367), Washington, USA Apr 4, 2008 Bottle. Amber in color with thin white head. Reasonable taste with hop overtones. An attempt at more sessiony than the pale that falls flat. travita (1887), Frisco, Texas, USA Feb 20, 2008 Light amber in color. Head is small and disappears fast. Taste is more hoppy and not very complex. Light pale ale that is not bad but not great.
STEPHENDR (478), California, USA Jan 3, 2008 12 oz. glass bottle- color of amber, with a white head - nose of sweat, some hops, and biscuit – taste is sweet, malts, red berries, and light hops- body is medium, and with medium carbonation – aftertaste is bitter , hoppy, and mild toasted malts JB175 (1660), Bucks County, Pennsylvania, USA Dec 23, 2007 Pretty looking brown color with a medium beige head. Aroma has some solid caramel maltiness and medium strength fuggles and assorted English hops. Flavor is unexciting but solid - tasty malts of caramel and bread with some light hop bitterness. Very smooth with just enough tingle on the tongue. Not bad at all. exadore (92), Sacramento, California, USA Oct 19, 2007 I really love this beer, it’s great from the tap and good from the bottle. Beautiful brown, smooth and very well balanced in regards to taste. Nice head from the bottle.
