Nov 22, 2007 Bottle. Nice, mellow hoppy aroma. Light foamy head. Nice malt flavor, hops start off strong and then fall flat. Overall, kind of like a combination of shredded wheat and sweaty gym sock. Disappointing. I can see the appeal, but this one isn’t for me.

Aroma: Malty, brown sugar and caramel.
Appearance: Poured an amber color with a small off white head which quickly dissipated.
Flavor: Sweet and malty with very little hop presence.
Palate: Thin mouthfeel with adequate carbonation and a sweet finish.
Overall: This tastes like it would be the Budweiser of Great Britain. I didn’t taste much hoppiness, just a lot of sweetness, just like Bud, only not nearly as bad.

Nov 21, 2007 0.5l bottle brought from England by a friend (thanks Ivana!)
Enjoying the irony of drinking this on the night Croatia kicked England out of the Euro 2008.
This poured an amber/orange colour (close to bronze) with a small to medium sized slightly off-white head that disappeared fast. Mild but pleasant nose... caramel and herbal-flowery hops. The taste is somewhat mild and pleasant as well... Sweetish (a bit caramel and just a tad roasty) light malty-earthy taste nicely balanced by some agrumey lightly bitter hops. Soft mouthfeel, light hoppy, bit metallic aftertaste. This’d make a very good everyday beer, but man... it could really use some body in my opinion.

Nov 18, 2007 Pours clear amber with a small white head that dissappers. Flowery hop and medium malt aroma. Flavor of slight sweetness, light fruit, and a wierd bitterness I can’t quite get into. Would love to try this fresher.

Nov 10, 2007 Nov. 2, 2007; bottle obtained at Malt & Vine, Redmond, WA. Rating this from memory, with the impression being that it was very similar to the Fullers ESB sampled immediately afterward. Happy to get my hands on anything that says "Fullers" on the bottle, and looking forward to giving this a proper rating at such time as I’m able to find London Pride here in Central New York State.

Nov 10, 2007 From bottle at tasting : Light yellow pour. Foamy head with good lacing. Not much aroma or flavor, kinda like a light beer. Not very good.
