Pours a cloudy, dark amber/copper with a huge, rocky, off-white head. The head lasts a long time and leaves lot's of lace.
Aroma of grapefruit citrus and pine.
All the flavour is on the hop side. A real 'Hop Bomb".
Lot's of piney grapefruit citrus on a decent brown sugar malt base. Some orange rind and lemon tastes in the background along with a touch of earthiness.
This one is all about the hops, I LIKE hops so I am really enjoying this one but if you don't Really, Really, Like hops this is probably not the beer for you.

Fullers London Pride

Pleasant smoky aroma. Have never come across a smell like that in an ale. Flowery with a bit of citrus flavor. Nice clean bitter after taste. Another great blend of hops and malt, (or bitter and sweet). All in all another great beer, not quite as good a blend as the Fullers ESB.
This is what Fuller's has to say about this beer:
"London Pride is a smooth and astonishingly complex beer, which has a distinctive malty base complemented by a rich balance of well developed hop flavours from the target, challenger and northdown varieties in the brew. At 4.1% a.b.v in cask (4.7% a.b.v in bottles)London Pride is an ideal session-strength premium ale."
