marlipin77 (3) - WALES - DEC 15, 2013 does not count
Nothing special. Hop aroma and taste is less than expected. Nice color. Too much CO2. Drinkable ??
Mackeon (163) - - DEC 15, 2013Brewed by Marston, this IPA shares many characteristics with their other beers, as likely as not due to their famous spring water. Perhaps a little too lightly hopped for this style, it is still a very pleasant beer, with a good flowery bouquet, a little sweetness in the aftertaste, and a good full body. The label aims for a mix of traditional simplicity and class, but I find it boring.

dEnk (4201) - Den Haag, NETHERLANDS - SEP 16, 2013Aroma is quite faint, some yeast, herbal hops and a touch of malt. Flavour is light bitterness, some fruity hops, nothing special, but I could drink this al night.
spacecube (1822) - Leeds, West Yorkshire, ENGLAND - AUG 2, 2013500ml bottle, pours a copper brown with small white head, fairly mild aroma with caramel and biscuit malts leading into a bitter finish with fruity and grassy hop flavours starting to come through. Pleasant enough.

[email protected] bhensonb (16381) - Woodland, California, USA - APR 17, 2013Bottle from the Cromwell Road Sainsbury’s. Pours light amber with a slight white head. Aroma is floral over light caramel. Med body. Flavor is light caramel with some bitter hop that seems citrus with a little floral tagging along. It is classically bitter. My tongue says that to me. In the bitter finish the malt becomes a slight roast. IPA? Pretty tasty whatever. (just noticed this is an ESB - that fits much better than IPA)
