(Rating #1345) Glouglouburp (2113), Montreal, Quebec, Canada Aug 16, 2006 Updated: Aug 26, 2008(Cask) Cloudy amber with a foamy long lasting white head. Nose is forestry and grassy. Taste is liquid caramel, floral hops. Below average sweetness (which I like) and very well balanced. Very faithful to the typical English bitter ale style. I can’t imagine it any other way than on cask (probably subtract 0.5 if draught). Won’t be long before it is promoted to Corporal Bitter. LadySusan (382), Ste-Therese, Quebec, Canada May 15, 2006 The color is dark orange, with the nice smell of hops. The taste goes from honey to caramel. All in all a very good bitter. jerc (3268), Toronto, Ontario, Canada May 1, 2006 Cask. Dark amber body with a small white head. Light caramel and citrus aroma. Sweet buttery notes. Mild hoppy bitterness is quite nice up front but the malt finish is pretty rough. Average cask palate. asheft (1019), Marburg, Germany Apr 8, 2006 [on cask at brewpub]
Almost clear tea with lasting white froth that formed a little lace. Strawberry malt aroma with notes of grapefruit, caramel--excellent. Unfortunately, the flavour did not live up to what the aroma promised: salty bitterness in front of...nothing. Needs way more caramel malt character. This tasted like a bad british bitter. Light body with low carbonation (cask, of course) and lasting bitterness.
