3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
This beer puts the "pale" in pale ale, which I think it's tries to hard for. An incrediblty bitter beer, even for my tastes.
3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Malt, sweet nose. what more can be said than its spicey. well balanced, light - medium body. very interesting..and...spicey.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
A light amber beer with a fine but disappearing head. The aroma is sweet and malty. The flavor is also sweet and malty with notes of fruit. A really good pale ale.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottled. Golden with lacy white head. Grassy herb aroma atop a good malt and hop structure. Plenty of everything in this beer which makes it nice to talk to.

Half of a gift set from the Inveralmond Brewery this is a pleasantly bitter ale. It actually reminds me of one our homebrew batches with a bit less hops (which is a good thing - the batch was far too bitter!) I enjoyed this one a lot. Very drinkable. Hopefully the other bottle in the set will be just as good.
2.1 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 8/20
Bitter. but still better than the regulary english pissy cask ales. However still not worth wasting money on!
2.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Spicy and herby notes in the aroma and in the aftertaste. Otherwise bitter.
4.5 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 19/20
UPDATED: JUN 26, 2003 pungent hoppy, herby aroma. lovely balance between fresh pale malt and herbal hops, then a really dry, salty, bitter, complex finish. this is excellent stuff - verging on orvalesque. 27/6 just banging this up a bit numberswise
3.2 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 12/20
UPDATED: FEB 18, 2008 Sept, 2002 Gentle and juicy grapefruit flavour - a very refreshing and pleasant beer. [2.8]
Feb, 2008 500ml bottle - cold filtered - from Gretna Green. Good hop flavours, and a light, slightly buttery malt which balances the citric marmalade beautifully. A refreshing and zingy ale - packed with flavour at only 4.1%. [3.6]
