2.3 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Remarkably middle of the road. Looks like a nice pint, body is too thin to recommend it. Just a bit of crystal malt, hops are there, but generic. Lacks anything distinguishing.

Tap at the Berkley front. Somewhat dominated by earthy british hops, decent malts underneath. Medium body. Not very bitter for a bitter, but still very english tasting.

A mild bitterness with a flurry foaming head. A watery swilland nothing to write home about.
2.2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
One day I bought one can of every beer that was not available in a bottle at my local liquor store. For some reason I assumed I would like this one the best and saved it for the last. I was disappointed. It’s OK but there are much better English brews to have. Even in New Brunswick.

UPDATED: AUG 22, 2006 500 ml nitro can Pours a very cloudy dark orange beer with a small, white, tight and creamy head. Sweet caramelly aroma, pleasant, with touches of orange, chocolate and raisins. Flavor is bitter, not very strong but smooth. There are some hints of coffee and bitter chocolate. It has no carbonation at all, but feels smooth with its oily texture. It’s a weird brew, definitely not for everyone.
