BelgaBart (51) - Antwerpen, BELGIUM, - FEB 16, 2012
Got this from the English shop in antwerp. very clear ber, no bubbles @ all. Nice cramy head, thanks to the ball in a can trick. Smell caramel, a little bit of hops and a little bit sweetness.Very soft and easy drinkable beer. The bitter flavor is there, but it is all the flavor you will get. Kinda dissapointed in the beer, is like water with taste :-(

Hanuta06 (142) - Washington, USA - APR 3, 2013
Serving: from (nitro) tap at Doyle’s Public House. Aroma: moderately sweet and malty. Appearance: average-sized, creamy, off-white, initial head with fair lacing and mostly diminishing longevity. Hazy, flat, medium-yellow body. Taste: lightly solvent-like initial flavor and lightly acetic, cardboard-like finish with short duration. Palate: light body, creamy texture and no carbonation. Overall: everything was very good but the strange taste.

Tangerines. Hazelnuts. Orange seeds. Light caramel. Creamy mouth feel. Dry fragrant light hoppy brew with light amber fruits. Clean finish. Nothing bad but nothing special.

ruigo (277) - PORTUGAL - FEB 10, 2013
I really was expecting more from this beer. As I saw its colour and head it resembled me of other nice English beers, but when I tasted it I really got disappointed. Misses in flavour.
