Captures the soul of beer. It has a maltiness that reminds you that beer is a product of the soil. Balance of malt and hops.

nice head, although not very long lasting. Smelled kinda sour and tasted kinda sour also. Excellent lacing and just bitter enough for me to enjoy.

A so-so beer. Not very strong in flavor. A very mild beer for a pale ale. However I like it’s lack of hoppiness.

Amber color with a good sized white head. Slight hops aroma. Tastes of hops, fruits, and malts are well balanced. Crisp , dry finish. Good overall

Dark amber, nice head. The aroma has notes of caramel and some fruit. The mouthfeel is quite full and the flavour is very smooth with nice notes of roasted malt, hops and fruit, and it has a nice dry finish.

meh. looks good with a nice amberness and small white head. smells alright too, some citrus there. flavor is like they wanted a good balance between hops and malt but are way too in between. just not that great. a little watery to me.

Pours deep amber with a good, beige to cream head. Aromas of honey and yeast with a healthy herbal hop bouquet. Very hop forward flavor but balanced with an assertive malt sweetness. Medium body. Finishes with an unfortunate metallic flavor.

middle of the road stuff. not one of samuel smith’s outstanding beers - drinkable, but flavours are forgettable.

Amber with frothy head. Malty aroma. Balance of hops and malts. Good, not great. A little sour at the finish.
