Jan 10, 2009 Updated: Jun 23, 2009I liked this. Too bad it’s not as easy to find as othes. But if you do find it, get it in the can, with the pressurized widget.

Jan 9, 2009 On tap. Poured a thick frothy white head of a translucent copper body with nice lacing. Very sweet aroma of malt, somewhat like Guinness. Tastes very sweet, roast barely makes a strong presence, slight chocolate undertones. Palate is watery, too watery. Had a friend try it and said it tasted like a cigarette dropped in tap water. Damn I thought, that’s exactly right. I expected better.

Jan 4, 2009 Pint glass from bottle
Crisp cheap lager aroma. No real distinguishing characteristics. Pours a dark caramel with a foamy white head. Bitter boring flavor, slightly sweet yuengling. Disappointing, blah palate, bubbly and tangy.

Dec 30, 2008 500ml bottle as Export 80 Shilling Ale purchased at a Wine Rack store in St Andrews, Scotland. Pours an off-white head resting for a while on top of a golden brown body. Decent laceworks. Modest smell of plain malts. Assorted flavours of grain, malt and fruit, ending with a touch of bitter berries. Partial fizzy in the mouth [St Andrews 01.11.2008].

Dec 29, 2008 On tap at the Cock and Bull (formerly the Glendale Pub).
Pours a nice dark brown with thick rich tan head.
Aroma is bready, sweet, and yeasty, nice.
The flavor is sweet up front, a bit meaty, smoky, with a bit of bitterness at the back of the tongue.
Palate is nice and creamy.
This is a good beer, probably a good introduction to better beer for people new to good beer.
