| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 10/20 | Mar 16, 2004 Very mild. Served cold, to be sure--too cold, perhaps. Big head, slightly hazy amber/copper color. This is sympathetic to the bitter style in the English fold, though in a Northwest way. This beer would probably be in the top 20% of English bitters by hoppiness. (on tap at Rogue Ales Public House, Portland) Lubiere (4480), Ottawa, Ontario, Canada

Fresh malt with a good balance of british hops (not as floral as their other beer), with a good balance and body. refreshing like breathing moutain air. sloth (1662), Ceciltucky, Co., Maryland, USA

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Feb 15, 2004 Hazy golden, no head. Sweet and fruity, rather mild. Quite ok, but nothing that matches the best. Vac (2389), San Diego, California, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Feb 9, 2004 This brew pours with an amber-orange body topped by a medium thick off-white head with lots of lacing. The aroma is slightly sour and slightly bitter with citrusy hop notes a touch of pine and a hint of sweet malt. The flavor is bitter and hoppy with piney notes, slight citrus notes, and a slight metallic note. the finish is bitter and piney. Medium bodied and dry. ruppert2p (10), Bowling Green, Ohio, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Feb 9, 2004 Medium amber with redish highlights. Nice hops in the nose. Good hops on the palate -- the malt comes through as the beer warms. Good round mouthfeel. Smooth and warming. A good American take on a British ESB. slang (397), Columbia, South Carolina, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Feb 6, 2004 Average head atop of golden bitter ale. The nose is hops, with possible hints of citrus. The taste follows the nose but citrus is more pronounced as grapefruit. Smooth despite the hops.
