Jan 17, 2003 Malty, hoppy aroma, copper colour, a huge toffee head. Malty, nutty flavour, good hop aftertaste. Smooth, balanced, as always well crafted.

Apr 12, 2004 Chestnut with dissapearing head. Lots of malt and fruit in the nose. Flavour has a big burst of caramel sweetness, then some hops and lots of woody bitterness in the finish. Very good indeed.

Nov 18, 2002 Another great brew from Samuel Smith’s. Color is great with a small lasting head. This is what beer should taste like; perfect balance.

Apr 15, 2002 Very different from American Pale Ales, which is I think as it should be. The taste is a bit maltier and less hoppy at the end, which makes it very drinkable. My biggest complaint was the complete lack of a hop smell, I just couldn’t notice any. (Maybe it was that i was drinking it on a beautiful spring day and it was tought to compete) There was pretty much no head, but that’s ok, it didn’t taste flat.

Mar 15, 2008 Crystal clear amber color with a big thick head. Retention is insane, with a half-inch cap lasting the duration. Leaves lots of sticky lacing. Aroma is a bit typical, with sweet maltiness and mild fruitiness. Flavor is mostly toffee and caramel, maybe some diacetyl. Hops are all but undetectable. A little tannic bitterness comes out in the finish. Dry, and smooth with a medium-light body. Really easy to drink, but not really as robust as I like my pales.
