jonno (1312) - JAPAN - APR 21, 2009
This was a quite passive ESB. Malty for the style with minimal hops. Not as lively as other ESBs. Solid for what it is

dwaggs2 (1124) - Jefferson City, Missouri, USA - APR 2, 2009
Bottle. Poured a dark amber color with a two finger white head. Aroma was malts and some sweet hops. Flavor was kind of citrus with floral hops. Some bitters in the aftertaste. Very well balanced. Great beer.

Cavie (3249) - Fort Worth, Texas, USA - MAR 8, 2009
Reddish/orange pour. Plenty of live yeast present. Aroma is more malty than anything. Taste is not bad. Much better than Fullers or other established ESB’s. Malty flavor, little on the finish.

stchloe (568) - Portland, Oregon, USA - FEB 22, 2009
This ESB is smoother than it is bitter. A little sweet with malty notes. Much better bitters out there.

jkwalking05 (1878) - Arlington, Texas, USA - JAN 31, 2009
Orangish copper color with a small white head. Slightly hoppy and fruity smell with a little caramel. Taste is hops and slightly bitter in a nice way.

milljam (682) - Norman, Oklahoma, USA - JAN 30, 2009
Some what typical of the ESB style. Pours a very golden clear with a thin white head. Aroma is somewhat fruity and crisp. Flavor is light, with notes of hops and underlying malt. Clean finish with little lingering bitterness. A bit on the low side for an ESB, but a decent beer nonetheless.

Pour is a deep golden with a small white head. Aroma of malt with some sweetness mixed in. decent hop taste with a clean finish.
