ReAle (120) - Rome, ITALY - FEB 5, 2011
UPDATED: MAR 8, 2011 Cask @ Brasserie 4:20 (Rome) - What an elegance! This is the kind of beers I love! Aroma of hops and fruits with honey and caramel notes. Taste of hops, fruited, quite bitter, a little bit sourness, perfectly balanced with caramel, malt and honey. Low-medium body. Great!!

Vladivostok (103) - Buckinghamshire, ENGLAND - APR 19, 2012
Very pale with good head and a massive citrus flavour followed by a strong bitter finish. A typical Anglo-American ale, I don’t mind one once in a while, but would hate to drink it all night.

Cask : The 7 Stars, Holborn. Light yellow, with a lot of hops(as the name suggests) refreshing and easy to drink, good finnish of hops too.

A pale ale witha lovely grapefruit aroma. A burst of hops hits the taste buds leading to a satisfying bitter finish. As rated by <A HREF=http://www.qualityales.com>Quality Ales

On pump @ 4:20.... bellissimo aspetto oro intenso, schiuma bianca e molto compatta, l’intensità dei profumi è bassa ma i profumi di luppolo son netti e delicati...al palato è contraddistinta da una splendida leggerezza, da bassa carbonazione e un legggero e caratteristico amaro e...come suggerice fabrizio, un finale di tè verde spettacolare....birra splendida, leggera, rinfrescante e dissetante...

WhiteStar (37) - Swindon, ENGLAND - MAY 6, 2004
Cask Conditioned @ Reading Festival and elsewhere. A modern American style bitter that bursts the floodbanks, breaks through the heart and bleeds citric juice all over the place. High and mighty and standing proud as a wounded soldier.
