4.6 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 18/20
Poured remarkably clear amber with a luscious creamy white head. A biscuity/malty aroma that was just plain yummy. Way up front malty flavor that was well rounded and followed by just the right bitter finish, without much hop flavor. The yeast lends quite a bit of flavor, quite similar to a newcastle, and a good bit of those buttery diacetyl notes. Pour me another one. Gott-damn, pour me another five!

Poured beautifully ... orange/copper with solid head. There's a real sweet aroma that perplexed me ... the flavor ... extremely sweet and caramel-based, with a bitter edge. This is different than you might expect in the US, but quite good.

It surprises me that this beer does not have a higher average score. I found it to be very smooth, satisfyingly complex in flavor, with a sweet balance to the hops that may for an enjoyable drink. Now if only it could hold a head!

Bottle at the Boy and Banker. Aroma is typically fullers, spicey fruity yeast, Easily mistakable or ESB. Taste is similar too, full and tasty, juicey and excellent.

UPDATED: SEP 27, 2004 Nice color, an amber/copper. Head that dissapates but leaves lacing. Bready and piney aromas. Excellent mouthfeel w/ great carb. level. Very satisfying.

A well made and true to type Enlish Pale ale. Too many times this is confused with others like SNPA, it's not

More of the buttery Fuller’s trademark. Soft and creamy, light hops. Makes a decent session beer. Like it.
