Jun 23, 2008 Pours a golden orange with a small soapy white head. Aroma of malts, and a little fruit. Flavor of malts and fruits and bread. Very smooth slightly sweet finish. Decent brew.

Jun 22, 2008 On tap at the Ginger Man. Pours a clear amber with a small white head. Aroma of light fruits (esp. raspberry), wheat. The aroma is very inviting and the beer smells better than it tastes. Watery palate. Flavor of light fruits (blueberry), raisin, dark fruits (esp as the beer warms). An odd mesh of flavors. Just ok for me.

Jun 22, 2008 On tap at Ginger Man. Surprisingly rich aroma of toasted malt, bread, red and dark fruits, most notable plum. Flavor kind of a letdown, breadiness disappears, leaving some weak malt and less fruitiness. Pretty watery. Big fan of Fullers ESB, so this was a letdown.

Jun 20, 2008 Bottle. A cool Bitter. Soundly crafted and a smooth talker. Enjoyment may come from location and company, as apposed to experience with this Bitter. Still, not to be missed.

Jun 13, 2008 500ml bottle. Clear, light amber with a small white head. Caramel and toasted malt aroma, with some bready and lemon notes. Slightly slick texture and gentle carbonation. Initial malt sweetness with lingering caramel and hop bitterness. Easy drinking.

Jun 9, 2008 12oz bottle. Light amber colour with a thin white head. Spicy malt nose, with some caramel and faint hoppy aroma. Flavor has good malt, a spicy hop profile with a long bitter finish. Good, but not great.
