Sweet dark malty aroma, almost confectionery toffee/caramel like, with some oats and diacetyl in the background. English hops quite prominent also.
Flavour profile is rather thin, mainly toasted malts and a decent hoppy bitter.
Mouthfeel is great for the style. Ryan82SM (236), Louisville, Kentucky, USA
| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 7/20 | May 10, 2009 Sweet caramel aroma with golden brown appearance. Flavor of caramel and some light hops in the finish, but sweet, like Newcastle. Palate was somewhat creamy. Another typical English offering, too samey, but not bad, just boring. thejon375 (392), Tampa, Florida, USA

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | May 7, 2009 bottle, pours a deep ruby red with a thin to medium off white head. Aroma is very bready with a nutty character sitting beside a carmel malt base. Light bodied beer, starts with a sweet toasted malt flavor that fades to a nicely balanced bitter nut and light hop end that lingers for a second. Very easy to drink and refreshing. shawnm213 (913), South Bend, Indiana, USA
