The appearance is amber with a decent head. The flavor is like the aroma and not special. The palate is thin. Overall it’s alright. cbeers21 (564), Miami, Florida, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jun 12, 2008 Pours copper brown w/ nice head and decent retention.

| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | May 17, 2008 Pours a slightly murky dark amber bordering on brown and sports at smallish tan quickly receding head. Aroma is displays an English style malt and light fruity hops. More like an English bitter than an Amber as described. Aftertaste is long and lightly fruity. Strong toffee notes creep in mid-glass. Well balanced and an easy drinking session ale. georgekappus (296), Brookfield, Connecticut, USA
| 2.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 9/20 | Apr 14, 2008 Bottle. Pours a nice deep reddish amber like a well cooked lobster. Aroma is sweet and doughy with a touch of cherries(?). Taste is a bit odd, some maltiness with a fruity bite. Beerlando (2315), Orlando, Florida, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Apr 11, 2008 Pours a crystal clear reddish-copper. A foamy, off-white head leaves tiny rings and random spots on the glass. Notes of glazed biscuit, toasted caramel malts, and mild floral hops comprise the nose. Flavors are basically the same, with perhaps a touch of spice to accompany the floral hop component. There’s also a doughy yeast element in there. The palate is on the lighter side of medium bodied, smooth and creamy, but finishing dry and slightly astringent. Certainly nothing to write home about, which is typical of Shipyard. darkguardian (506), Florida, USA

Aroma of biscuit and hops with a hint of caramel. Taste of caramel and some floral hops. Clean taste with a lingering breadiness. Not bad but it’s pretty basic. Good session amber.
