crystal clear amber with a decent off white head that settles into a thin film. nutty toffee apricot aroma sweet toffee apricot with a very light bitter backdrop. dry bittersweet slightly fruity toffee finish with a hint of chocolate. medium body...body seems a bit thin. moderate but almost fizzy carbonation. at first i thought there wasnt enough carbonation then it gets all fizzy and weird. damn aritficial carbonation. overall not a bad beer. not bad with widmers 4 year old cheddar.

does not count  Aug 6, 2008 This was a tasty beer. It’s color, taste, and aroma were of a nicely understated caramel. It’s not a particularly good-looking beer, but the hops were well presented and didn’t have an off-putting bite. There was a little citrus, which was a nice complement.

Aug 3, 2008 Blah. Typical English strong ale. Aroma was decent. Mostly hops and butterscotch (?). Pour was a decent medium thick gold with placid bubbles and no head. Taste was mostly stale caramel, lemon and dusty hops. Little to no carbonation. Not a drainpour, but not very enjoyable overall.
