Wittenden		04 Sep 2010	I've always wanted to try Palmers beers as they are one of the (reasonably)few listed in Frank Baillie's Beer Drinkers Companion that I've never come across. Worth the wait?-Yes, but I was slowing by then, and the troops were getting fractious.

Martin the Mildman		11 Dec 2009	Seems to be sold as Lamb & Flag Gold here. Barrel had just been changed, but beer was slightly hazy and probably a bit fresh. Quite sweet with a hoppy finish. My score 15/20 - B quality.

Ian		11 Aug 2007	Gold, lasting beige head. Bit of butter on aroma. Some hop, good condition. Not keen though, dull in mouth, earthy hop finish. Nothing wrong with it, but just lacks chutzpah.
