ya i was dead set on trying some trappist stuff or some ESB (pretty sure london pride isnt an ESB but its from Fullers so i thought it'd be in the ballpark)

ill go trappist next time

- Crimsoninja



two totally different types, be wary of getting hooked on trappist... it gets to be an expensive habit


also forgot how GOOD this beer is, and it's not too pricey

Most English Ales do ok over time. Some of them even improve over a few years.

I was just joking though. I drink hoppy beers too lol.

I've never been a huge fan of those malty english beers. Although I never been to England so I'm guessing the beers they serve in the pubs over there are way better then anything you can get in a bottle.


I've had this one years ago and I seem to remember liking it

I still have a few of them. All of them still have their goats too. I hate when I get home and notice someone stole the goats off the bottles

Lol, i've got a few of those as well.
I had a bottle that I cracked open after years of sitting in my basement. It didn't age well. It had a sherry like taste to it. Much better when its fresh.

Brilliantly clear copper color, with about a half inch of bubbly head that hangs on for a minute or two. The nose has a doughy malt character with touches of fruit and a light grassy hoppiness. It's clean yet complex at the same time. Not too intense, but quite lovely nonetheless.

The malt has a butter cookie-like sweetness that melds well with the bittering hops lingering through the finish. Clean, with a light body, it seems slightly watery but workable for an ale of it's strength. The carbonation feels light, yet wienerly on the tongue.

A very solid English Pale. It is balanced and easy to drink, but if I'm having a Fuller's I think I'll stick with the ESB most of the time.

This stuff is absolutely fantastic (unless you have a hop allergy):



The Rye is really a nice touch. It's a mellower but substantial malt that results in a very refreshing, drinkable but full bodied IPA.

Drank it all day catching up with my dad in a pub in Rockridge. Creamy and very drinkable, I loved it.
