Old rating from 16-06-15 - 355ml bottle brought back from the States by a friend, poured at home in Jersey. It's amber with a white foamy head. Aromas & tastes of caramel, toffee, bread, grass & malt. Medium body. Moderate bitter finish. Very enjoyable

Pours reddish w/white hoppy head. Not to bitter, not too bad, not too exciting either.

It is an interesting bitter or I could say close to an Irish ale, watery, a bit metalic, malty, few hop and mineral, good pint. 10.07.2017, buying it at one monoprix in Paris, drinking it at Bonfol, relax, on holidays.
gave a cheers!

Bottle. Really good. Haven’t had a lot of bitters but they are tasty. Decent head. Deep golden color. Good stuff.

Listed everywhere i see it as an apa, but this classification of bitter is more appropriate, maybe even english pale ale. Clear gold pour, with a small white head. Aroma is slightly pungent, subtle uk hops, pale malts, decent cereals, mouthfeel and carb are spot on, the finish is lightly bitter with some floral uk hops, and a solid malt bill. Nothing spectacular, but well executed and a good session ale.

Bottle from Hopt. Aroma is biscuity malt, soft fruity hops, fruits, berries, jam, touch of caramel. Flavour is moderate sweet and moderate to medium bitter. Body is almost medium. Not bad, nicely fruity, more aromatic than the average English Bitter.

On draught at Old Chicago April 11, 2015.
Pours a clear copper/gold, good head of foam to start, recedes leaving little lacing behind.
Smells of bready malt, some sweetness, touch of h
Light bodied, kinda lively carbonation.
Average beer, imho.
Tastes of bread, malty sweetness, light bitterness, very lightly flavoured overall.

On tap at Goose Island Sao Paulo. Almost clear orange with small white head. Malty and some light caramel, watery and pretty bland.
