Deep and slightly bitter. Poured out of the can with a very full head. Still very smooth.

1 Pint Tin Can - Gravity Room - Olympia, WA.
Aroma – Deep malty with a good amount if bitter hops
Appearance – Golden in color, Clear with a thick head
Flavor – Had a deep malt flavor with some hops that gave it some bitter flavor but not what I was expecting.
Palate – This was a dry finished beer with some nice overall flavors.
Overall –This was a good beer but missed the Bitter boat. Nice but needed more bittering hops and lacked that overall British Bitter flavor.

Pint Can... Poured an amber with a white head. Weak, watery malt aroma. Boring palate that made my tongue ache. Tasted like killians or something. I’m not sure about this one, I wish I ignored it from the self.

Pours golden with a creamy head. Sweet, creamy odor. Light, smooth taste that ends with a taste of soft cream. Almost seems to have the consistency of milk. A drinkable beer, with a slightly lingering taste, but no really strong flavors to it.

Draught, 20 ounces, drank at O’Connell’s, savoured June 7 2007; eye: golden with yellow reflections, thick white head made up of tiny bubbles giving it the appearance of cream, so much lacing it looks like velvet, clear; nose: hops, vanilla, banana but not as much as the two preceding weeks, fresh, a bit of alcohol, citrusy; mouth: the head catches the bitterness making the head tastes like agressive bitterness, malt, spices, relatively smooth, rather thin, agressive and unpleasant bitterness in the finale that contrasts somewhat with a beer that is smooth and not that tasty, texture is creamy at the start and then watery, medium-light body, good carbonation, slightly bitter and sweet FRANÇAIS En fût, 20 onces, bue chez O’Connell’s, savourée le 7 juin 2007; oeil : dorée avec des reflets jaunâtres, épaisse mousse blanche formée de très petites bulles lui donnant l’apparence d’une crème, tellement de dentelle qu’on dirait du velours, claire; nez : houblon, vanille, banane mais beaucoups moins présente que les deux semaines précédentes, fraîche, un peu d’alcool, citrique; bouche : la mousse capte toute l’amertume et cette même mousse goûte une amertume agressante, malt, épices, relativement douce, plutôt mince, amertume agressante et déplaisante en finale qui contraste fortement avec une bière douce et pas très goûteuse, texture à la fois crémeuse au début puis aqueuse, corps moyen-léger, bonne carbonatation, légèrement amère et sucrée

The cascade and head is reason enough to love this beer. The taste is creamy yet bitter. Not as smooth as a lager, but not thick like a guiness. It’s a weird cross breed beer and if you have people over it has a sort of indie-cred that makes you cool and sophisticated...but not snobbish.

Canned pint in Huntsville, AL.. Pours a deep brown with a fairly foamy head that lasted a fair amount of time. Aroma is malted and wheaty. Taste is sweet with malt. . A hint of the bitterness does come through in the end. Mouthfeel is smooth and creamy with a touch of bitterness. Overall pretty good, but not great.

Pours dark copper with some fizzy bubbles. Smells of some pepper and a touch of dry malt. Tastes of corn with some earthy undertones and a hint of pepper. This is supposed to be a bitter? Tastes more like crappy malt liquor.
