Ian | 25 Feb 2011 | I love this beer. From the malty biscuit aroma, to the fullness in the mouth with more malt and the malty peppery hoppy finish. | |

Blair | 04 Mar 2010 | I can honestly say this is the best I've ever tasted this. Perfectly balanced, malty with a subtle toffee flavour to it. Lovely. | |
ChrisE | 21 Jan 2010 | ||
Ian | 20 Jan 2010 | Just about my favourite brown bitter. The malts are really outstanding and the finishing butter toffee is very good. So difficult to get a decent brown best bitter these days. And beautifully presented too. Only one thing to make it that bit better from the brewer would be to throw a few more hops in, but that's just me. | |
Andrew | Not Tried | 20 Jan 2010 | I didn't even know this was on until Ian ordered a 2 litre bottle of it. The lesson here is ask what's on. |
Glyn | 31 Oct 2009 | First time for this beer, beautiful colour and great taste. Packed a surprising punch | |
Mick | Not Tried | 24 Oct 2009 | |
Blair | 22 Oct 2009 | I was looking forward to seeing how this tasted 'Butchers Style' and I wasn't disappointed. Malty bitter with a little toffee, fairly simple bitter but very well made. |

Hogan Sampling | 02 Nov 2024 | Had one of the few remaining before all drunk. Still had good head and lacing with a gently malty mouthfeel and a dry, hoppy aftertaste. | |
Hogan Sampling | 01 Nov 2024 | Fresh on this evening and of the 4 customers in, apart from me, 3 were on it, or had tried it and liked it. Superb head and lacing and a malty but not sweet flavour to die for and made my taste buds go "Cor, Cor!" which is when something is very worthwhile to drink. A fruity mouthfeel with a lingering bitter, dry aftertaste that only certain beers cause me to smack my lips with and in appreciation. Very moreish! | |
Philip Pirrip | Not Tried | 17 Oct 2024 | 5th day on - another customer found it "on the way" |
Hogan Sampling | 17 Oct 2024 | Been on too long as in 5 nights, although some head for a short while. A malty bitterness persisted but also a slight sourness giving it a somewhat medicinal mouthfeel. One sufficed. | |

Andrew | 10 Apr 2010 | Excellent condition on this well crafted beer. Can't knock the beer for it's construction or how it's been kept but it just isn't quite to my taste. It was a nutty brown bitter but I found the finish slightly harsh and sickly. It's never been my favourite Gadds. I should have had the No. 3 - other than the strength it's much more my type of beer. | |

Ian | 22 Jan 2009 | My favourite Gadd's beer. If I had to buy say 16 pints of just one of Eddie's beers it would be this one. Love the balance of sweet chestnut malts and the slightly peppery hop. Everything in a best bitter that Shepherd Neame Kent's Best isn't | |

Ian | 12 Nov 2008 | It took a few pulls to get any liquid out of the pump so I guessed it had just got a new barrel and he was just pulling it through. Certainly the first pour didn't look very beery. But the barman didn't pour it away, he served it to me. It looked alright, but I did challenge him, he said that there is sometimes a back log of air that needs pumping out. Anyway it tasted vaguely of chemicals. Shame as this is a good beer, it just needed serving a bit better. | |

Ian | 17 Nov 2006 | I had a swift half of this after the Dogbolter as I needed to catch the train. This is quickly becoming East Kent's best, best bitter. Attractive clear russet colour. Perfect malt/hop balance with tingly hop finish. Hop tends towards the aggressive as the beer finish progresses. Good beer. | |

Ian | 29 Jun 2005 | Had this here a couple of weeks ago and it was a 4/5 very good. This was a bit odd. The beer went off on handpull so the barman took the class into the cellar behind the bar and poured the beer straight from the cask. Bit flat and cold, but actually this was alright by the end. | |
Ian | 15 Jun 2005 | Chestnut brown in colour, quite a hoppy nose, good smack of hops in mouth with some malt. A good balanced best bitter. Good length and finish of hoppy bitterness. Really liked this |
