Jun 30, 2007 12 oz bottle: Pours a dark golden color with a large sized foamy white head. Aroma has some really nice malt textures coming off of it at first. A note of hop backing is nice as well with a citrus scent intermingled. Somewhat nutty as well. Taste is mostly sweet and lightly malty with some discernible hop characteristics that are melded together with the malts to make a wonderful brew. You can make more of a hop note in the palate though as it lingers on the back of your tongue. A completely balanced brew! Overall, Pretty darn good stuff. Glad it’s my #420!!!

Jun 26, 2007 Alias "Brooklyn Pennant Ale ’55." Has the typical golden yellow ale color, not much of a head. Aroma is pleasant and inviting with a strong fruity hint. Flavor is malty with a touch of fruit and just a whisper of hop bitterness. This ale is very smooth but just a little bit on the watery side.

Jun 24, 2007 Nose of butterscotch and hay. Well balanced taste with fruity hops. Just not a whole lot going on in this beer. Getting points for clean flavors and overall balance. One of those beers that’s better than it’s Ratebeer rating because of the emphasis in rating on strength and complexity over balance and quaffability.

Jun 16, 2007 The aroma is very much like an English Ale with biscuits, nuts, and hops. The appearance is amber with a somewhat small head. The flavor is like the aroma and quite good. The palate is decent too. Overall a good beer.

Jun 14, 2007 Really liked this beer. Enjoy all of the Brooklyn beers actually. Had this one as brooklyn Pennant 55 Ale... so they must be still making it as both names.
