Oct 3, 2004 Updated: Jan 26, 2005This is a damn good ESB. Pours a deep red with a small ivory head. Lots of wonderful hops and a caramel maltiness that make for a great aroma. The taste starts off smooth and malty with a sublte toasty maltiness, then finishes with a great hoppy bitterness and a bit of grapefruit in the hopped finish. A well rounded clean and crisp taste thats makes this one of my favorite deschutes brews.

Aug 28, 2007 12 oz. bottle via trade with franksnbeans - Pours a slightly hazy amber color with a one finger thick off white head. Light spotty lacing. Aroma is light malt, herbal and light citrus hops. Flavor is much of the same. Light to medium body. A nice, easy drinking beer. Thanks Jacob.

May 30, 2009 At Sudwerk Beerfest 2009. This amber ale poured with a foamy tan head and a toffee aroma. There is a slightly chalky roasted malt flavor with a balanced hop bitterness and some spice. Not bad.

Oct 17, 2006 Bottle (12oz). Shared with biegaman, blankboy and GregClow, blankboy’s bottle. Clear amber with an average white head. Sweet malt aroma, tea, herbal hops, grainy. Taste- same, hoppy, tea, light malt, bitter finish. Solid body, very astringent, long linger, decent carbonation - excellent US take on an ESB - a little hoppy, but nice.

Feb 5, 2008 Light orange color, slight earthy nose. Chewy bread-like flavor. Great tempered hop balance, just the right amount to blend with the even malt texture. Good example of style.

Sep 28, 2009 Had this and Deschutes Cascade Ale back-to-back . . . couldn’t tell the difference between them. I suppose my Beer God ststus will be revoked for that. Both beers were good though - enjoyable, lightly hopped thirst-quenchers.
