Oct 6, 2007 pours nice dark amber with a fluffy head that disappears fast but laces nice the whole way down. Nice nose of UK hops and crystal malt. Smooth and quite malty with hops all around, beginning to end.Nice bitter but not as good as Fullers. A "Well" balanced beer that I’d buy again (If Vadallia didn’t have Fullers).

Oct 1, 2007 Pours a nice amber color with a short white head that sticks to the side as the beer is drunk. Aroma of yeast and fruit. Nice, fruity taste that finishes well. Overall, a great beer. When I was in England I saw it on tap... wish I had tried it.
1 pint, 3.25 oz. bottle.

Sep 30, 2007 Appearance: Pours a clear, reddish-amber body with a finely bubbled, ivory-colored head.
Smell: Perfumy aroma of caramel, citrus, bittering herbs, and yeast.
Taste: Subtle malt flavor of caramel with a pinch of chocolate. Vaguely fruity. Lightly sweet. Bitter herbaceousness. Finishes dry.
Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied. Moderate carbonation.
Drinkability: Fair enough. A decent, if not standard English bitter.

Sep 30, 2007 Tap at The Diamond: Pours a deep amber with a brown hue and a thin tan head. The aroma lacks hop, making it mainly chocolaty and lightly nutty. Mild carbonation on the palate. The flavor has a hint of nuttiness & some light toasty crystal malt. Not enough bitterness, especially for the style. Simple, session-able.

Sep 29, 2007 Bottle. Toast malt balanced with deep-lain red fruit and bready fruitcake. Lesser notes of plum and yeast. Deep mahogany/chestnut body with a beautiful, soapy, lacing rocky tanned head. Dry, lightly bitter, lightly fruity taste, with the fruit lingering a little more than the other notes in the brief aftertaste. Pale Malt and the Goldings are the key players here. Slightly dusty medium body. Carbonation is a tad artificial. Faintly earthy. Pretty standard bitter.

Sep 24, 2007 [Sampled in 2005.] Copper beer with lazy head and lazy flavor, just ok. Notes of weak fruits, bitterness, many ingredients, A thirstquencher with a dry finish!

Sep 21, 2007 clear burgundy/brown with no head. i really don’t get any aroma...maybe some caramel. flavor consists of caramel and tea....or just loads of crystal malt. palate is watery. i didn’t really care for this much.
