[1] Review by Jne5HusG from Le Havre, France who has tried this beer once. (12/30/2009 5:45:22 AM)
"Hand pulled cask at Argyll Arms in London, W1F 7TP. Poured a hazy deep gold to copper colored ale with a very thin white foamy head that had a good retention. No carbonation. Good lacing. The aroma is floral hops, notes of butter caramel. The flavour is slight caramel malts, floral hops, fruity. Well balanced. The mouthfeel is very smooth. This light bodied ale has a long bitter finish. An enjoyable ale."

"Pulled from the cask at the Dog & Duck in Soho on 2/1/08. A perfectly clear golden color with a rich creamy white head. Bready nose with light hop aroma. Pleasant full mouthfeel, flavors are well balanced with light malt and slight hop bitterness. "

"I have the good fortune to live 10 miles from the brewery - so its readily available nearby - I drink it often.
A good classic & genuine yorkshire beer, light and slightly sweet - locally served it has a creamy head but little spritz in the ale itself. Aroma is I think a disapointment & somehow lacking. Its not very bitter or hoppy. However - somehow it is easily recognisable.
This isnt a 'great' beer to examine & ponder - but a good, honest session beer to enjoy drinking by the pint in company.
In bottle - a close match to the real thing (except the CO2 of course).
I value this as a true yorkshire beer, not trying to be anything else - thats what makes it great."

"Copper coloured, nice foamy white head. Aroma mainly citrus fruits and hops. Flavour is like a standard bitter, fruity hoppy. Aftertaste is kind of dry and fruitish hoppy. "

"Superb hoppy bitter, Golden in colour but as traditional as a Bitter comes. Reeks of quality, and has won more gold medals and Camra awards than almost any other beer in England. Unusually, also very good as a bottled beer."
