3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Body is a golden amber, with a nice bubbly white head. Aroma is slightly hoppy, along with a touch of caramel, honey, and light grapefruit. Taste has a nice hoppy background, a light amount of caramel, almost like a wheat note too.

500 ml bottle. Pours a nice red colour with a thick white head. Taste of Malt with a nice hop finish to the beer. I enjoyed it and would look for it again.

500ml bottle.A very dark amber with a fluffy off white head.Aromas of malt and hops are quite evident.Smooth and well balanced with just enough hops to keep it from being to malty.A good brew but I would not ask for this very often.

4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
This, to me, is the prototypical British Bitter. An exemplary example of the style.
Copper, cool and quaffable.
Great lacing in the head, a refreshing aroma of fresh-mown hay and a balanced blend of hop spiciness and malty fullness.
Buy a pint now!
2.8 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 13/20
Interesting very heavy bottle 1 pt .9 oz bottle. Very heavy! Seems darker than usual, but i suppose if it’s thicker, then it would be darker....
Cloudy orangish amber. Very thick head creamy off white. Thick lacing with a extra strip of lace at the top.
Strange very dry grain smell NOT sweet. Cant’ quite pinpoint the smell, [spice of some sort] not unpleasant, but not like any pale ale I’ve had before.
Mouth-feel is somewhat thin and light, with some hoppy back bitterness. That smell is present at the back flavors but still unidentifiable.
Since I haven’t had much [recently anyways] exposure to an *English* pale ale, this might be more *spot* on, but at the moment, its a little different.
Drinkable, ale that I’ll have to try again.
[ as is usual with most liquor stores i go to, this one might be old, and been overly warmed up]
2.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottle. Dark golden colour with an off-white head. Aroma malt and apple. Flavour is fruity roasted caramel malt with a hint of apple.
3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Served at room temp out of the bottle. Redish copper color with a big white head. I really enjoyed this beer and could have had many of them. A creamy malty body that is carbonated to perfection. Great bitter finish that warms the body.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
[Bottled at East End Brewery, Quarry Bay, Hong Kong] Brownish amber, clear, firm head. Pleasant mangoish hop aroma. Dryish with clean mouthfeel Pleasant biscuity malt flavour. The moutfheel is short and quickly replaced by grassy bitterness with a touch of sulphur. Unadventurous, but well crafted.
3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bready, oaty aroma. Appearance is like that of bourbon only with an extremely small white line (read: head). Taste is noticeably malty with a light hop kick finish.
