May 13, 2009 22 oz bottle. Clear orange brown with a creamy beige head. Nose is strawberry jam with a hint of cocoa. Very crisp medium light with sharp suds. Starts with bitter mandarin orange, apple and club soda. Finishes dry with cedar, pith and menthol. Seems a bit brash for a Bitter but pretty good. Carb level could be toned down.

May 9, 2009 22 oz bottle. Not my favorite style of beer, but I just was not impressed. Toasted caramel malt and fruity flavor. A bit watered down with a metallic aftertaste. However, it pours a beautiful clear mahogany color.

May 8, 2009 Light mahogany with a crazy creamy head. Delicate fruity strawberry head. Seriously. Fresh strawberry in the first sip, what the hell? Second sip too. Say what you will, this is my experience. Fruity throughout with a earthy malt finish. But where’s the bitterness? Very good beer and I really enjoyed it, but more as an amber and less as an ESB.

May 4, 2009 aroma of caramel and toffee, spice, and a touch of marmalade. Excellent carbonation and mouthfeel. Toasted bread-crusts, with a gentle bitterness and a hint of hop flavour. Seriously chewy malt flavour - if you were being kind iit’s voluptuous.

Apr 9, 2009 22 ounce bottle from Smokepot23. Pours bright copper with a lasting tan head. The nose is plenty of toasty and bready malt, and berry esters. Flavorful bready malts with a bit of herbal hops. Medium body with a dry finish. Tasty beer.

Apr 5, 2009 Bottle... Poured deep amber with a thick off-white head. Spiced, fruity and candy-sweet aroma. Lots of carbonation with fruity ester flavors and smooth malt flavors with a mild hop presence. A great ale.
