Sampled from bottle. Wow. What a nice session bitter! This ESB pours clear copper with a thin, but lasting off-white head and scattered lacing. Its aroma is subtle, but nice: hard candy, floral and spice hops and hints of caramel. The flavor is nicely bitter and wonderfully spiced with hops, but the malts are still dominant. Medium-bodied and well-carbonated (but not gassy at all). Bitterness lingers. I could drink this ESB all day.

Dec 6, 2008 Pours very golden colored with a white head. Taste is wonderful of rich hops but not to much. I give this one an A+, a wonderful brew from the Bridgeport brewing company.
