JohnnyZ (80), USA Apr 2, 2007 Traditional, quality, refreshing, decent brew. Malty and robust. Good bittering hops and finished product. However, as good as it is, it is only average and is just another english ale. lumberjack (178), Michigan, USA Mar 30, 2007 Well balanced ale. Earthy hops are only mildly bitter. A bit bland on the palate, but overall very drinkable. Cajun (144), New Iberia, Louisiana, USA Mar 29, 2007 Bottle - Nice copper/amber color with white head. Good hoppy nose, with citrus, hint of floral. Solid flavor of sweet malty grain, bitter finish. Says Pale Ale on the bottle but classified a Premium Bitter/ESB? Bottom line, I like this beer and I’ll drink/buy it again. EithCubes (2140), Indiana, USA Mar 29, 2007 Updated: Apr 27, 2008Bottle. Light spice and malt nose with a little nuttiness to complement the caramel. Clear light orange body with a foamy beige head. Crisp, lightly caramel malt taste. Touch of nuts and dry toffee. Not really too bitter or sweet, but a good, plain session. Touch of sourness. [3.0]
Re-rate, April 08. Bottle. Pale malt nose with grass and a slightly floral tone. Clear orange pour with a lofty rocky beige head, rather nice. Taste is basic caramel-infused pale malts, lightly nutty, and again, keeps both sweetness and bitterness under wraps. Aftertaste is dry with slight caramel. Body is watery. Just the slightest, slightest whisp of hops. Extremely good for something so ubiquitous and mainstreamed! [3.0] alexanderj (2212), Chino Hills, California, USA Mar 27, 2007 First time I’ve had this beer, since I saw the light about beer. It really was pretty good. Flavor was mostly of sweet malt, a little bready, with a slight hops finish. Was easy drinking, but was not too big of fan of the palate. Dry finish. DirtyJerd (61), Edinboro, Pennsylvania, USA Mar 27, 2007 slighty roasted, almost coffee like taste - very surprising. expected much different from this one. padrefan98 (787), (San Diego) Santee, California, USA Mar 25, 2007 Had this one at Hooleys, an Irish pub. was not impressed with the taste. It was easy to drink. Not much flavor. tkhans (50), Bangor, Wisconsin, USA Mar 24, 2007 Updated: Jun 3, 2007able to finish, but save the extra money and buy a local pilsner next time, new can with nitro burst had a nice cremy head and enjoyed
