The standard to which all pale ales are measured. Hoppy, nice head, good looking and full of flavor. Helps aid the digestion.

Jan 7, 2009 Bottle. Clear amber pour topped by a diminishing white head. Smells of toffee and earthy English hops. Tastes of caramel and tobacco. This used to be my go to beer before I discovered craft beer, now it is merely OK.

Jan 3, 2009 on tap at fox and the hound in lewisville, tx. poured a nice amber with a white head and left some lacing on the glass. aroma was very sweet with malt, some citrus. flavor was exactly the same as the nose. a real decent brew overall, but nothing special.

Jan 3, 2009 On draft, ruddy hue, good carbonation with tiny off-white head. Current version in US has a light malty tang aroma leading to sour malt and some biscuit and nut flavors. Very thin body and weak finish.

Dec 31, 2008 Pours a perfect crisp amber with a thin fizzy white head that quickly fades to a skim and a ring that stays. Aroma is grassy, floral and citrus hops, straw, a little caramel and raw cereal grains. Flavor is cereal grain, caramel, straw, apple, floral hops, a little citrus, a sorta sour and nutty drying like slightly underripe walnuts. Finish is dry and slightly bitter with a grainy, almost adjunct taste to it. Body is thin and watery a bit high on carbonation. Not bad for a beer that is everywhere, though I have bought a few skunky sixers over the years.
