Golden without a head. Has a fair bitterness in both its aroma and flavour. Has a nice smoothness in the palate.

CanCrusher (309) - Ilirska Bistrica, SLOVENIA - MAY 5, 2013
Bottle 0,50L. Clear copper colour with small off-white head. Light hoppy aroma, caramel malts and some fruits. Light sweet taste at the start, moderate bitter at the end. Medium to full body, creamy texture, flat carbonation. Average ale...

Jonb5 (235) - Greater London, ENGLAND - APR 28, 2013
Pale bronze, clear, one finger head, great retention + lacing. Aroma maris otter, vanila, some hop content. Tasted roasted malt, cranberry, wheaty finish. Thick body, well carbonated, coarse edge. Overall pasable but forgetable ESB.

stevoj (913) - Ramstein-Miesenbach, GERMANY - APR 10, 2013
Disappointing. Flat and bland. Pours a caramel color with tiny head and lazy carbonation. Faint smell of malt, fainter malty taste with just a annoying bitter lingering palate. Thanks, but no thanks.

pivnizub (7981) - Bochum, Porúří, GERMANY - DEC 27, 2012
Bottle: Deep golden, hazy, lacy white foamy layer, drier fruity-bready nose, a tinge of well hidden honey included, some delicate metallic-hoppy traces, too; light bitter-sweet flavour, pretty slim; dryish fruity-hoppy finish.surely not bad, but too thin…

SarkyNorthener (600) - Walsall (Yorkshire Expat), West Midlands, ENGLAND - DEC 25, 2012
Bottle. I can’t believe the difference between the cask and bottle version. The cask version is superb. The bottle version isvery middle of the road. Very disappointed.
