3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
This is one of the best bitters out there for my money. I always perk up when I see it on draught.
2.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
Strong pale ale... Pas vraiment, très douce, pas très houblonnée, ni au nez ni en bouche

2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Pour is a hazy copper with a large white head. Aroma is a little earthy malt but not much else. Flavor is again a earthy caramel malt with maybe a faint whif of hops. Traditional but not very exciting.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Sweet and chalky. A little lemon, coppery. A fine color, very clear and filtered looking
3.6 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20
Very smooth and easy to drink with just the right amount of sweetness and malt. Nice hearty earthy aroma and pleasing mouthfeel.
2.3 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
No sure about the hype. Is that only because of Madonna? This is one of the most tasteless, aromaless ales I have ever had. As forgetable as an ordinary, cheap lager.
3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Pours golden amber with a small medium white head, pleasant hoppy aroma with well balanced citrus and malt taste, some caramel sweetness too. Light carbonation, pleasant and drinkable with a good dry finish.
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Pours a dark copper color with a small head that fades to spotty lacing. Aroma of citrus , caramel malt with bit of fruit in the background. Taste follows siute with a citrus nip then some caramel sweetness and bit of fruit. Nice bitterness and the finish is quite dry. Medium body, crisp and refreshing. Nicely balanced. Enjoyable beer. it’s nice to have a traditional style beer once in a while. Worth a try.
