[1] Review by beerguy101 from Newark, CA, USA who has tried this beer once. (5/5/2007 10:47:07 PM)
"This old ale pours a medium amber gold color from a 50cl bottle. Medium to large sized white foamy head. Aroma is caramel, fruity and slightly hoppy. A medium bodied old ale. Malts are caramel. slightly malty an sweet with a touch of cherry. Hops are citrusy and earthy. Nice balance. Good carbonation. It’s a very drinkable ale, a touch bland, but interesting. Mouthfeel is full. Finish is clean and crisp. Aftertaste is slightly bitter."

[2] Review by staleyiv from Newnan, GA, USA who has tried this beer once. (3/26/2005 7:49:59 PM)
"The aroma is very fruity and floral-like and very sweet with some hints of hops. The apppearance is a rich ruby red in color and very nice with a massive off-white head that is bubbly and does not discipate. The mouthfeel is full-bodied and complex with hoppy balance. The flavor is robust and strong with hints of hoppy characteristics and a nice finish that is very hoppy but off-set with malt. Overall, this is a good, solid beer that has a nice hoppy taste that is smooth and refreshing and very relaxing to drink. This is a pretty good ale in my opinion."

[3] Review by Hannah from OK, USA who has tried this beer once. (1/2/2005 11:18:55 PM)
"Pours dark brown and cloudy with a dense, lasting head comprised of tiny microbubbles. Aroma is weak, but I did note apples and oak. Medium-bodied and pretty smooth with adequate carbonation. The main flavor was apple and there was an unpleasant acidity in the aftertaste. Not my favorite,,,prehaps if I were an Old Man?"

[4] Review by Brett from Far from good beer, OK, USA who has tried this beer once. (1/2/2005 11:05:23 PM)
"Sampled from bottle. Pours a clear ruby-brown with a thick, creamy off-white head and sheets of lacing. A rather inviting beer. Aroma is earthy and has notes of fresh fruits. Flavor is balanced with caramel malts, green apples and berries. Just a hint of hop spice in the flavor. Finishes tart. Too tart/fruity for my tastes, but overall, a good ale."
