| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Oct 21, 2009 Serving: 12 oz. bottle.
Appearance: Deep brown color with a foamy, light tan head. The head fades fairly quickly.
Aroma: Nutty and fruity nose with slight wet paper and cardboard notes. I think this one has sat around for a bit.
Flavor: Malty with a touch of that signature English sourness. I can’t see what the fuss is about with this one. A little bit of nuttiness and a mild back bitterness help round things out.
Palate: Medium-low carbonation with a medium-light, water mouthfeel and a short finish.
Overall: It is just okay. NayTron (37), Kalamazoo, Michigan, USA
