JamesD (192), Centreville, Virginia, USA Jul 30, 2008 I think this is a pretty good beer. It has a very pronounced hop aroma and flavor, a little bit earthy or flinty. This beer is a very good balance of maltiness and hop flavor and aroma. The aroma and flavor are a little musky/funky. This is a session ale that might even be able to stand up to a strong French cheese. Give it a try. mmmbeer (737), Austin, Texas, USA Jul 29, 2008 500 mL bottle labeled as English Ale poured into shaker- poured murky orange copper, low carbonation, bubbles around the glass for a head. Aroma of a brisk sour malt and hops. His the mouth with a small thin body, malt has a sour quality to it (musky wheat?), appealing bitterness at the finish- has a dry quality to it after a few seconds. DerWeg (748), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Jul 26, 2008 500ml flask ENGLISH ALE label - lcbo. Copper color with medium coarse head. Aroma of hops citrus and a bit of tin. Taste immediate tinny quality, but lots of good bitter hops Very dry finish, raspy. Med-light body with some tart ale-fruits and very little malt sweetness. Distinctive and good. CQC (223), Sydney, Australia Jul 26, 2008 Very Tinny tasting. Flat bubbles, good looker - nice audurn-amber. Not a great after palete, & smells ok, - sweetish redgold07 (308), Irving, Texas, USA Jul 25, 2008 Pours a hazy copper/orange color with a slight white head. Flavor is a little bitter with hops but it also has the slight earthy note to it that I fond common in most organic brews.
1 pt. 0.9 oz. bottle. timsilvia32 (445), from Michigan now in Charlotte, North Carolina, USA Jul 17, 2008 Kind of a golden orange pour. Kind of citrus/floral in the nose. Medium body, not sticky, pretty crisp. Lightly malty, slight citrus and nut. Very drinkable.
