| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Jul 11, 2007 A metallic tasting ale with messy bitterness and citrus rind flavors. Its golden bronz with nice head formation but the nose is kinda messy with malts and sharp hop notes. The mouthfeel is sort of watery with astringency towards the back of the tongue.

| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Jul 10, 2007 12oz bottle. Pours a honey amber body with a slightly larger than 1 finger, soapy looking dirty white head. On the nose we have floral hops, citrus rinds and dishwater. Also get some sweet grains. Tastes of citrus, floral hops, dough and grains. Heavily astringent on the tongue. Medium to light bodied, oily palate. Finish is slighty bitter, spicy and of medium length. Unremarkable but unoffensive. Canadianlush (169), Scottsdale, Arizona, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jul 8, 2007 Pretty average overall. Rich amber coloring, but almost no head or noticable aroma. Smooth but not very hoppy and not very bitter. Exactly what makes this an English Pale, I don’t know. Drinkable but boring. ChainGangGuy (2549), Kennesaw, Georgia, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jul 8, 2007 Appearance: Pours a crystal clear amber body with a medium-sized, white head.
Smell: Pleasing aroma of sweet-smelling toasted malts, saltines, and gentle flowery hops.
Taste: Sweet, smooth bread dough flavor with a bit of toasted grains. Hops are fairly light and provide a bit of citrus as well as some floral notes. Ends with a softened finish that’s both lightly sweet and bitter.
Mouthfeel: Medium-thin bodied. Mild carbonation.
Drinkability: Oh! Oh, I say! This reminds me of the Acme Pale Ale I had earlier today.

| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 3/10 | 3/5 | 8/20 | Jul 7, 2007 Caramel and honey aroma. Clear dark copper pour with a medium light tan head and good lacing. Singularly and strongly metalllic flavor. Faint hop finish that gets better during warming. thenick (744), North Bellmore, New York, USA
| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Jul 7, 2007 Malty aroma, with an orange-brown color. The taste is faintly malty and hoppy, but overall the flavor here is fairly weak. Not the best pale ale or the best offering from Brooklyn. SSSteve (2056), Atlanta, Georgia, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jul 5, 2007 a rich caramel color with a small tan head. very good mix of hops and maris otter in aroma. flavor is bready and doughy with a citrus hop finish. right down the middle with this one. nice. tgncc (809), Bellmore, New York, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 4/5 | 10/20 | Jul 4, 2007 Biscuit like aroma. Picked up a slight alcohol smell. Wirerd considering it’s not high in alcohol. Nice red/gold appearance. Flavor has a hop bite to it, mostly a bread/malty flavor. The mouthfeel is a medium thickness. Finish is a little abrupt, doesn’t linger. Nice beer for its type.
