| I first had this at the pub at London Euston after a long train journey... and to be honest it didn't seem worth the trip! I've had it again since and it's really growing on me. Its a really drinkable beer, and last time I had it (at a great little pub off Oxford St. in London - The Bath House) I found it quite tasty. I had given it a 5, but it's definatley worth more than that. |

| A mid amber coloured ale with a slight sweet light fruit aroma. There was a rich malteness which became more apparent as it came up to ther right temperature. This is a beer that is often over chilled (thanks Cask Marque)and as a result it's dificult to judge fairly.I have recently tried this ale again and have to say it's rather too bland. |

| Cask Conditioned, at many pubs. This is a beer that suffers from its own popularity, as many pubs that don’t sell enough cask ale to justify one beer, insist on selling this along with 2 or 3 other beers. However, in a Fuller’s pub this is a fine beer and one of my all time favourites. Malty, reserved sweetness with some bitterness in there. |

| I would have to rate this as one of the best of the mainstay real ales. London Pride is very common but is certainly a cut above the likes of Abbott ale and Old speckled hen. Plenty of room for improvement but then you can't expect too much from one of the larger breweries. |

| Rich aroma and flavour (cask), but lacks a little freshness to be "perfect". |

This used to be one of my favorite beers prior to it going into mass production. It is still possible to find a good pint as long as it is not kept too cold.
Pride is a well balanced hoppy/malty beer with a lingering bitterness that almost hides a background of sweetness. |

| Great looking and when in good form this is one of the best beers around, suffers from its popularity and poor cellarmanship, lots of complex marmalade flavours can be detected |

| Is a great beer when fresh in a Fuller's pub. Hoppy aroma, distinctive Fuller's flavour. Often ruined in non-Fullers pubs by serving through a vile sparkler. I had it like that once years ago for the first and last time. If you see it like that, stay away and inform the brewery. |
