I can tell you why Dad tried it at the temperature he did – we double checked Beer Advocate and they said serve at 50-55 F:

That said, I can tell you that based on the strength of the comments that Dad has now tried this again at the appropriate high 60′s temperature and that son of a bitch Jim Little is right – it sang. Dad will soon be posting about his new experience here as an addendum. Thanks Beer Love community for setting us straight when we need it!

My great-something-or-others came over on the Mayflower, so I’m as American as they come – and I think this is the best beer there is. Dad, why the (*&# are you drinking it at 50 degrees?

Shove your shitty 6 rating up your ass. Try drinking this fine English bevie at the appropriate temp, 68f.
