Oct 2, 2009 Light aroma with fruit citrus notes. Pours out a dark amber with a light head. Some hoppy flavor with a light palate. The finish is short and is a bit lacking. A nice lighter beer, easy to drink but light in flavor.

Sep 28, 2009 A good pale ale. Not to heavy but not to light. Good flavor but is not going to over power you.

Sep 27, 2009 Bass pours a clear amber/gold with a moderate head that lasts but a couple of minutes. Liberal carbonation is evident.
The aroma is faintly hoppy, floral and clean. The aroma is not overpowering yet hits the nose as you take a drink.
The taste is crisp, with a slight bitterness and faint malt sweetness. Bass is not incredibly strong flavored yet has enough there to be enjoyable. It’s not a "lite" beer but is light flavored.
Of all the "light" tasting classic ales, this is the one I like the best. Now, I know...it’s not a great beer. But it is good and it is very refreshing. I see Bass as a good beer, not heavy and with lower alcohol.

Sep 26, 2009 Enjoyed from a 24oz bottle in a pub glass. The beer pours a nice light copper to medium amber color, with a nice and fairly long-lasting white head. The nose brings a fairly complex and rich malt character, showing some biscuit notes and caramel. The palate brings straight-forward, but nicely blended malt notes; giving strong hints of caramel, and more subtle ones of biscuit, toffee, and just a touch of raison. The finish is rather full and just a bit sweet, but the flavors quickly leave the mouth, allowing the beer to be fairly refreshing on a warm day. Overall, this is obviously a very popular and widely available beer, but, given my experience, perhaps an underrated one, as well.
