shintriad (698), Toronto, Ontario, Canada May 16, 2006 If not for that stupid green bottle, this would be a decent beer. Unfortunately, a hint of skunk creeped its way into the floral/vegetably smells. Also, far too mild and watery for my tastes. An unusually strong citrus presence combined with a faint butteriness makes this interesting, but otherwise, I wouldn’t revisit this beer anytime soon. gputty (456), Virgina Beach, Virginia, USA May 16, 2006 Possibly had a bad bottle of this. When the top was popped a huge skunked aroma filled the air. Poured a light orange with no head. Nose was bitter skunked hops. Flavor was typical lager with some adjuncts. Probably should try another. Trev (850), Lakeville, Minnesota, USA May 15, 2006 Pours a clear amber with no head.
Aroma was a bit weak, fruity un-ripe peach hoppiness, orange pekoe tea and a yeasty mustiness.
Flavour was earthy and dry bitter with a lingering orange peel pithy flavour.
While the flavour is assertive, I didn’t find it particularly pleasing. stegosaurus (1882), Levittown, Pennsylvania, USA May 15, 2006 Bottle. Pours a deep golden with a small off-white head. Aroma of citrus, Sweet malts, hops, and breadines. Flavor is sweet malts, smooth, citrus, with a hoppy bitter finish. Decent body, avaerage brew. ElGaucho (1730), Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA May 14, 2006 Bottle at Beer on the Pier, Chicago. Pretty sure this was listed as "St. Peters English Ale. Dry euro aroma; not overly promising. Slightly hazy gold with a large bubble head. Dry...way too dry, and thin. Crit (2399), New Westminster, British Columbia, Canada May 13, 2006 Rerate May13/06
First bottle I had was called English Ale, this is Organic. Definitely not the same beer but rating now reflects this beer, not the former.This is very thin, flat,bland and visually unappealing with no head or bead. Total crap. VTHopHead (895), Barre, Vermont, USA May 10, 2006 Bottle - Pours an amber color with a thin whitish head. Aroma has some flowery hops, but not terribly strong. Flavor is initially mild, but comes on strong once the hop bitterness kicks in. Initially has a somewhat malty sweetness that gets quickly overpowered by the bitternes. The finish is quite btter and lingers leaparsons (4659), Leicester, Leicestershire, England Apr 21, 2006 Bottle. Golden, amber with a small off-white head. Aromas are herbal and floral with biscuit and sweet grapefruit. Flavours are dry biscuit with bitter, slightly sour citrus. Tastes a bit stale. Dry on the finish. Not too bad.
