3.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 14/20
12oz bottle. Pours a clear, not quite copper, but orange-gold-bronze colored body with a finger-width, off-white head that dissipates quickly and leaves a veil of creamy foam on the surface and glass. Good looking beer. Aroma is paler, bready caramels with a good amount of citrusy hops. Grapefruit-honey and a light, herbal spice. Flavor is lightly hopped with a nice, herbal fruity bitterness. A somewhat flowery honey sweetness accompanies the pale, slightly bready caramels. The fruity, bready, hop bite grows slightly into a dry finish, where it lingers for a good amount of time. Body is light to medium and very smooth. Overall, a nice ESB. The malts are light, but the hops fit this really nicely. They’re clearly present, but never grow out of hand and stay well balanced throughout. Great body and extremely drinkable. Solid.

12 oz. bottle which came in a variety pack. A mild hops taste prevails while drinking, bur doesn’t linger too long. Overall, pretty smooth, but nothing that really jumps out to make it out of the ordinary.

Hazy pale orange with a white head and good lacing. Aroma is mostly hops as is the taste. The light body finishes dry and bitter.

On tap at Caliente. Pretty decent session beer. Nicely balanced between malts & hops, definately nothing over the top. Not my style, but easily drinkable.
