From old tasting notes. Honey gold color. Thick white head is mousse-like. Subtle yeasty malt aroma. Smooth creamy malt flavor has a softness to it, and a very pleasant mouthfeel that makes you want more. Pleasant hop finish. Tasty.

Clear copper, moderate off-white head. Caramel and massive esters on nose. Sweet malts and light grassy bitterness tasting. No proper flavour composition. Esters again

16 ounce can into imperial pint glass, best before 4/2017. Pours clear orange/amber color with a 2 finger dense and creamy off white head with incredible, retention, that reduces to a large cap that lasts. Dense creamy lacing clings down the glass. Fantastic appearance. Aromas of cracker, biscuit, honey, light pear/apple, herbal, grass, light pepper, and yeast earthiness. Nice aromas with good balance of pale malt, earthy hops, and light-moderate fruity yeast notes; with solid strength. Taste of cracker, biscuit, honey, light pear/apple, herbal, grass, light pepper, and yeast earthiness. Light herbal/spicy bitterness on the finish; with lingering notes of cracker, biscuit, honey, herbal, grass, pepper, and yeast earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Nice robustness and balance of pale malt, earthy hops, and light-moderate fruity yeast flavors; with a great malt/bitterness balance and no lingering hop astringency after the finish. Light dryness from bitterness, increasing through the glass. Light carbonation and light-medium body; with a very smooth, moderately creamy/grainy, and lightly sticky balanced mouthfeel that is nice. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 4.7%. Overall this is a nice English pale ale. All around nice robustness and balance of pale malt, earthy hops, and light-moderate fruity yeast flavors; very smooth and easy to drink. A nicely enjoyable offering.

Draft pour, not can. Looks fantastic, and has a great creamy body, but only average in the taste department.

Well it is nothing wrong with it. Just a bit to mild and kind of dull.
Clear deep golden color with a creamy off white head. Medium body and a soft carbonation. Moderate intensity in the aroma. Tad sweet and a moderate bitterness. Caramel malty and some bready notes.

Bottle on Celebrity Millennium. Smooth Ale beginning. Fresh, dry. Hints of malt and caramel. Not too deep in body, fresh malty aftertaste. Round and nice but a bit watery.

Pours a crystal clear amber from a can with a thick nitrous head. Aroma of bitter hops and some pale malt; flavor similar. Okay beer.
