Pours clear dark red/brown with a full off-white head.
Aroma of cloves with just a touch of molasses and chocolate.
Feel is full, rich and creamy. Very nice.
Taste starts with a strong hit of cloves and then some brown sugar. A light hint of vanilla and chocolate with some raisin mixed in.
The finish is surprisingly clean, the clove and brown sugar flavours linger along with something I can only describe as the taste of Clorets gum.
I like this one. None of the flavours are too heavy and the finish is very clean. I could drink a lot of these.

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."
