Hopper (751) - The Alamo, Texas, USA - SEP 21, 2009
A light brown beer with a decent head. The aroma is malty, & caramel. The taste is very smooth nutty, malty, caramel & is one of the smoothest beers I’ve had.

Bottle. Amber pour with a thin white head. Watery , as I have come to expect. Flavor is mild, sweet and malty: Lightly bitter finish. Satisfactory.

BeerChaser0078 (846) - Melbourne, AUSTRALIA - SEP 14, 2009
Bottle. Another winner from Fuller’s! Pours a lovely golden copper with an off-white head that lasts well. Nose is packed with notes of toffee, rum, golden syrup, banana and malt. Very smooth mouthfeel with flavours of caramel, brown sugar, malt as well as a very nice bitterness that blends very well with the sweeter notes, although the beer isn’t as sweet as it sounds. Very nice indeed.

mkel07 (1553) - Brisbane, AUSTRALIA - SEP 12, 2009
500ml bottle. Dark copper rusty vcolour with a deep thick dense beige cap of foam. Aromas of malt and spiced fruit tantalise the nose. Strong flavour with a medium bitterness and a strong bitter acrid aftertatse that isn’t unpleasant.

Slipstream (1465) - USA - SEP 10, 2009
Nice label. Dark amber pour. Yeast and malt aroma. 1845 is a well balanced and flavorful English ale. English hops and yeast are front and center. The finish is sweet and hoppy. Another nice brew from Fuller.

Palidor19 (2295) - Brandon, Florida, USA - SEP 8, 2009
English like flavor with this beer with the water and the grassy hops and the toffee like malts that pattern all around it. strong flavor. funky aftertaste that does work but the rest is wonderful.
