On tap at Pratt's served in a 3 lions shaker pint. Beer is brown with a mild haze, decent but thin head with some retention to it, moderate to mild carbonation.
Aroma is bready and sweet with a subtle and mild roast, a few esters.
Beer is easy drinking medium in body and overall nice on the palate. The flavor of the beer is mildly bitter and sweet up front, no roast on the palate, wet finish. I enjoyed it. Pretty good overall.

Draught pint at The Pratt Street Ale House here in Baltimore. Another of the Oliver brews I use to sample alot more often before I moved to mid-town.
This is one (like Oliver's ESB) I prefer from the cask. A solid example - based on my limited experience - of an English strong brown ale.

An otherwise decent beer is sabotaged by 2 things: it has an overly bitter aftertaste and it sits on your stomach like 10 tons of bricks.

On tap at the source. A clear, deep copper-brown color with a modest off white head. The aroma was primarily cherries, caramel, brown bread, and toffee. Bitter up front with fruity, floral notes. Sweet and malty. Some toffee, burnt caramel, and cherries. A hint or orange on the finish. I was left with a ringing bitterness which distracted from the taste, but this was nice.

When I want a classic English Strong Ale this is is. Malty, big, a bit boozy, caramel, and extremely balanced. A great English Strong Ale from a great Baltimore English brewer. Pours dark brown, with nice firm head. Notes of leather, caramel, toast on the nose. Taste? Consistent on the nose but sweet dark caramel, a bit of cigar and cedar on a warming toasted big finish. Right at the end a nice big finish with the alcohol and hops to balance. Great scott! This is good.

Pours a finger and half of head on a dark brown body.
The aroma is dark dry grains.
The taste is caramel, muted apricot sweetness, molasses with a long tingle finish.
The texture is crisp and fizzy.
It has great flavor.
