2.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 13/20
On tap at some chain restaurant in Durham. Pours a clear orange-amber with a small, fluffy, white head. Light hoppy-malt aroma. Taste is sharp, of hops and malt, a bit yeasty. Lingering sharpness. Drinkable, but forgettable.
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
Slightly hazy golden coloured amber body with a thinnish light tan head. Aroma of fresh hops, caramel, nuts and a bit of sugar - pretty nice, mostly nutty though - so the EPA shows through. Medium-bodied; Strong caramel flavour tucked in with the english low a.a. hops and a nice rounded out maltiness. Aftertaste shows sweetness and the hops bittering at the end. Overall, a nice beer - definitely an EPA, but not an amazing choice. It went well and was a good base for Fish & Chips, but I wouldn’t buy a six pack of this! I sampled this twelve ounce bottle purchased from Total Wine in Durham, North Carolina on 31-August-2008, at home in Washington on 21-October-2008.

Bottle courtesy of ucusty. Pours a medium gold with one finger snow white head and streaky lacing. Nose is grain and light hops. Taste is malt, sweet grain and mild citrus hops. Lighter mouth feel. Not much to this one I’m afraid. Thanks for the opportunity to try it David!

Bottle. Pours orange. Smell of citrus and hops. Taste hoppy with a bit of a bitter aftertaste. A decent Pale, but not the most flavorful I’ve had. However, I do like this.

12 oz. Shiny pale copper with a small spit of foam that hangs around. Faint aroma of sweetish grain, resin and maybe an occasional hint of orange. Light taste of apple and honey on the front is quickly overtaken by resin, turns to resin-wood and light citrus flavors, then finishes with bitterish walnut, almond and resin. Light body is dry, tingly with hops and is lightly carbonated. Nice English session pale.

Golden-amber clear, with white head. Mild floral and earthy aroma. Malt, low hop, caramel, and earthy flavour notes. Fairly light body with mild bitter finish.
