Dec 13, 2007 Bottle courtesy of dirty_martini. Pours mahogany with a nice white head. Smells of citrus, roses, touches of caramel and hints of pepper. Tastes of sweet malt with some nice underlying spice, hints of citrus and a nice finish that yields some floral notes. An excellent beer.

Dec 3, 2007 Bottle at Toms Ultimate Glasgow Tasting: Poured an amber with a heafty off white head. The aroma is yeasty and hops. The taste is metallic hops with lost of that carbonation which was present in the way the head reacted.

Dec 2, 2007 Bottle at ultimate glasgow tasting. Very highly carbonated, kind of ruins it a bit infact. Aroma is well balanced grassy citrus hop with rounded malt character. Taste is similar though quite thin. Too carbaonted.

Dec 1, 2007 Bottled, consumed on 12/1/07. Deep ambery coppery color, slightly hazy, pours a modest head that thins to a ring around the edges fast. Beautiful sweet malt aroma with sugar/molasses notes; indistinct and fleeting metallic tang the only flaw. Mouthfeel is slightly smooth and creamy. Yeast character is unexpectedly strong on palate for an ESB. Grainy, fruity flavors (sweet oranges, apricots) wash over the tongue before going down with a clean, fast finish. Traces of caramel as well. I love this beer.

Nov 23, 2007 Bomber, with thanks to WeeHeavySD. Pours a clear orange-amber with a thick two finger tan head, minor lacing. Aroma is grass, citrus and caramel. Flavor is a good balance, leaning a bit more to the malts, very smooth and drinkable. A nice, pleasing, highly sessionable beer.

Nov 17, 2007 10-29-07 bottle. Tea flavor and aroma. A strange stillness about it - again, like tea. Cloudy amber color with decent head.
