This beer has just the right balance between the sweet tasting malt and the hop bite. Just bitter enough to satisfy, but had a sweet pleasant aftertaste, that makes this quite a complex brew. Another great Smuttynose beer. maf21196 (1), New York, USA does not count | 4.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 5/5 | 10/10 | 4/5 | 19/20 | Aug 22, 2005 brown beer smells like caramel. Very refreshing. The finish is very dry. A little bit too hoppy. mkobes (2104), paramus, New Jersey, USA

Its made with cascade hops, but they are not overpowering. It has a hop crispness to it. Copper colored. I thought it was enjoyable. Falconseye8 (525), Cartersville, Georgia, USA

Thats ok because Smuttynose is a different style but nonetheless a very very good beer. I’ve had two of this line previously and both were outstanding. This is no exception. Of the English Style this is the 2nd best EPA I’ve had to date. eraserhd10 (226), new haven, Connecticut, USA

Bold, delicious hops; rich, copper color. Very smooth upon the palate. Strong finish with memorable hops lingering. Note to self: look for more from this brewery! jah noth (1023), Rochester, New York, USA

Deep, rich color, floral nose, zesty hop flavor with a strong lemony bitterness. Very full bodied. Reminiscent of Liberty Ale - it's richer, but not as carbonated. Very good!

| 4.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 19/20 | Mar 1, 2005 Terrific brew which pours out a nice coppery color with a good-sized tan head which didn’t completely leave. The taste is awesome with an overall hops and malts dominance with an undercurrent of sweet fruitiness. Finish is slightly bitter but pleasant. Looking forward to drinking more!
