Abounds with Imported English Goldings hops at a weight of one pound per barrel. It has the assertiveness, aroma and unbanished flavor beer used to have before the cost-cutters started.

merlin48 (656) - New Tazewell, Tennessee, USA - JAN 21, 2008
12 oz bottle pours a clear amber body with an offwhite head that deposits some sticky lacing. Aroma is toasted caramel, fruity hops and some red apple esters. Well balanced taste with earthy hop bitterness, caramel maltiness and a note of ripe pear midway through. A tasty American ESB.

BuckeyeBoy (2138) - Boise, Idaho, USA - JAN 10, 2008
On CASK at BrewPub Portland OR, Pours out a hazy copper topped with a off white head. Pretty good. Some light wood along with some light hops. I think this style is starting to grow on me. Or I have just had a few good ESB’s as of late.

Quintessential NW ESB--Pours a handsome amber body with a lively small white head. Nose of crisp earthy mildly sweet malts and sharp spicy hops. Sweet, chewy delectable flavor that finished about as smooth and rewarding as any around.
