Jun 1, 2008 22oz bottle. Nice looking beer. Pours a medium copper-brown, with a nice off-white head. Aroma is balanced, with a bit of spice. Flavor is was almost perfect for a bitter, not too hoppy, plenty of malt. Palate was smooth, with just a bit of fizzy carbonation. Overall a very good example of an American ESB.

May 10, 2008 22 oz bottle poured into an English pint glass has a dark amber color with red highlight. head initially is a thick one finger light tan and falls to a layer with good retention. aroma has caramel malt, light hops, spice, and mild fruit. mouth feel is medium light with a nice creamy texture. flavors are bolder in the taste bringing a well malted character and light bitters along with mild hops. there is some sweetness that i like and light spice along with nicely complementing hops that are all well balanced. very enjoyable to drink.

May 3, 2008 Bomber. Pours a deep copper color with a one finger creamy off white head. Nose is really mild with just a faint hint of sweet malts. Palate is caramel, malt and a touch of hops. A bit too sweet for my tastes. Medium mouth feel and decent lacing. Not one of Alesmith’s better beers.

Apr 28, 2008 Draught at brewery. Mainly clear, dark amber-brown with lovely off-white head. Lace. Estery aromas. Delicate flowery flavors that vanish too quickly without much bitterness at the end. It’s balanced but the British hops are lost on me, and the finish is too quick.
