Price:  Reviewed in: Beers of the World Issue 3
Nose : Delicate citrus hop has the advantage initially until nutty malt emerges. Raisin notes develop.
Palate : Hoppy and nutty-malty. Complex, but not dominant, fruit flavours throughout (pear, cherry, pineapple, raisin). Powerful hop resins dry the palate. Fairly bitter
Finish : Dry and hoppy with a light toffee-ish maltiness.
Comments : A full-flavoured, robust beer with the distinctive Fuller's hop thumbprint. Probably good with roast beef.
Score : 7.75
