CaryTheDude (1113), Longmont, Colorado, USA Aug 2, 2008 Bought just for fun. Crushed with Jakebra. Unfortunately not a good beer. CelticBrew (676), The Crystal Coast, North Carolina, USA Jul 30, 2008 Pours from 16.9 oz bottle a cloudy amber with a medium sized, rapidly fading head. The aroma is light and smells mostly of malts with a touch of yeast and hops. The taste is dry and malty with a lightly bitter finish. Somewhat typical English beer, nothing too special here, sorry. kiefdog (1534), Tampa, Florida, USA Jul 30, 2008 Updated: Jul 31, 200850cl bottle from Willow Bend Liquors (Tampa, FL). Pours a generally clear amber color with a one finger frothy white head. Aroma is sweet malt, ripe fresh fruit, some hops. Maybe some notes of honey, raisins, plums and syrup. Flavor is sweet malt and caramel at the beginning but transitions to somewhat sour malt and wet hay as I sample the pour. Light body with a generally watery mouthfeel. Somewhat sour, bitter finish. Lacks body and distinctive flavors. wyzzywyz22 (754), Wirral, Merseyside, England Jul 27, 2008 Bottle, Legendary Lancs Heroes, Crosby. Didn’t have especially high hopes for this for some reason, but I was pleasantly surprised...Appealing amber colour with a white head. Fruity, sweetish malty aroma. Malty toffee tinged flavour, with a dash of hop. Clean tasting and refreshing with a dry finish. No major grumbles here at all. Why tie a beer into a film which is more than 30 years old though ? Crap idea, doubtless cooked up by a chinless marketing exec, but not a bad beer. In the words of the Frenchman.... I don’t want to talk to you no more, you empty-headed animal food trough water! I fart in your general direction! Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries!
That’s my 2 Fiddy up ! MBison (548), Southern Highlands, Australia Jul 13, 2008 Bottle (500ml). Poured a golden orange with a averaged sized frothy, white head which was mostly diminishing. Aroma was of spicy/earthy English hops (mild) with butterscotch, toffee malts, sweet biscuits, orange citrus, tangerines and some honey. Flavor was a light grassy hop bitterness with floral notes, dry biscuity malts, English marmalade, orange citrus, some honey, light notes of toffee and a spicy finish. Medium bodied with medium carbonation, a dry spicy mouthfeel and a good finish. FatTony (121), Augusta, Georgia, USA Jul 8, 2008 pint bottle- poured out a dark gold color with a minimal and short lived white head. The aroma had a hint of pumpkin. Taste was unremarkable in all respects. Had a less than pleasant bitter finish. A loser. punainen6 (93), Finland Jul 8, 2008 0,5l bottle .White thick head, brown copper color, really hard to distinct anything particular on the smell, quite neutral. Taste is gently bitter but abit bland, propably drinking this abit too cold. Overall not bad but there’s lots of better choices for similar experience. swoopjones (1862), Buffalo, New York, USA Jul 2, 2008 bottle @ Allen Street Hardware, Buffalo. Very average if not below beer, Very litle bitterness. Pours a light copper color. Flavor is lacking with some bitterness & medicinal qualities. Movie was much better as was Spamalot
