Commercial Description:
Named for the 54 Colorado peaks which tower over 14,000 feet in elevation, our session beer is a spectacular copper hued beauty. The treatment of our water to simulate English hard water and the blending of several specialty malts and hops produce a delicate balance between aromatic maltiness and herbal hops.

Bottle. Pours cloudy light amber with a thin but lacy head that descends to a ring of foam. Aroma of herbal hops and caramel. Light body, a little watery, with medium carbonation. Lightly sweet taste of caramel and fig, with a crisp floral finish.

Appearance: Pours a clear, effervescent, copper body with a small, glass-coating, white head. Smell: Fairly mild aroma smelling of dry, biscuity malts, floral hops, and just a hint of caramel. Taste: Malts tasting of dry-old biscuits with an exceedingly light touch of caramel sweetness. Floral hoppiness, even some citrus. Smooth, medium-low bitterness. Sip of spring water on the tail end. Light bitterness on the clean finish. Mouthfeel: Just barely makes it to medium-bodied. Medium carbonation. Drinkability: About average for an American-born ESB which leaves it somewhat forgettable.

12oz bottle served in an English pint glass. Pours light amber in color with a foamy white head. Smells of dough, grass, and nuts. Decent nutty, grassy flavor. A solid ESB.

For and ESB not much going on. Pours a nice copper, not much head. Has a nice hop aroma, but it doesn’t really come through in the taste. Very drinkable. For those that enjoy beer, this basically sums it up: My girlfriend who prefers miller light thought it was drinkable.

Bottle. Copper pour with a big off white head. Nice hop aroma, citrusy and spicy. Has a dry bitter flavor, not alot going on, just a clean hoppy taste. Not bad.
