kiefdog (325), Tampa, Florida, USA Jul 22, 2008 On tap at Oldsmar Tap House (Tampa, FL). Pours a slightly hazy golden yellow with one finger white head. Aroma is wheat, grain, sweet malts, wet dog. Flavor has notes of wet straw, grass, hops with hints of fruit and flowers. Light bodied with a quick, slightly bitter finish. jehoey (696), Shippensburg, Pennsylvania, USA Jul 20, 2008 Aroma is earthy pungent english style hops with some citrus overtones. flavor is balaned, but a little one dimentional. just earthy hops and a bit of malt. probably the kind of beer that really shoudl just be served on handpump, because it was unimpressive from the bottle. Drnk_McDermott (1519), Park Forest, Illinois, USA Jul 11, 2008 12 oz. "Pennant Ale ’55," best by Oct. 08. Nice amber ale color, spongy tan head. Smell is of caramel malts. Taste is sharp with spicy, mostly English hop matched to crystal toasted malts. No ale-type esters, in fact this suggests some cold lagering. Bit of an alt profile toward the end. Tejas (581), Dallas, Texas, USA Jul 6, 2008 Decent example of the style but just way to dry and soapy for my tastes. One and done. biz82 (1300), austin, Texas, USA Jul 4, 2008 Clear amber with a frothy tan head. Sticky caramel malt and mellow hop aroma. Malty toffee flavor with soft hops and some fruitiness. Has a wet paper note and the finish is a little metallic.
