Jun 5, 2006 Nice copper/amber color with an ample tan head. Aroma is hoppy, so is the taste. Taste is a blend of hoppiness, malt, caramel, and fruity tones. Nicely balanced flavor in this esb.

May 19, 2006 Finally rating this one...on cask from Tangletown. Yummy...This is one of my favs to sip on at Elysian. Amber with very little head. A very hoppy ESB, which is probably why I dig it so much...a good balance of malt. You could definitely consider this a "dark IPA".

May 13, 2006 A place I frequent most. Really maly rich and red, if red was aflavor this would be it. Very silky sexy red with a sweet hoppy fashionable balance. One of my fav due to the mouth coating silky texture

Apr 20, 2006 Draught No head left; amber-foxy beer. Hoppy, discreet USA hops and some cookie malt, even caramel. Nutty, grapey, hoppy flavours. Bitterness makes up the finish. Slick, slightly oily, smooth. Sweet aftertaste, strangely enough. Very good ESB, no diacetyl, bravo!

Feb 27, 2006 22oz. bottle. Deep amber hue with a medium sized offwhite head. Some citric metallic hops in the aroma, but buried beneath a huge buttery diacetyl component. Mild caramel maltiness and a slightly chalky resinous hop flavor. Though again marred by a butter pantina that mutes the other flavors. Residual dark caramel flavors in the finish, with a slight astringency. Buttered popcorn lingers on the tongue. Mouthfeel is medium, rather smooth.

Feb 21, 2006 Draught at the brewpub. Clear amber. Laid back grapefruity ho aroma. Sweet with clean mouthfeel, some syrupy notes. Meduim bodied with plenty of hops. The finish holds licorice and grapefruit.

Jan 30, 2006 Updated: Feb 5, 2008clear gold body, no head, slight hop nose, pale flavor thats a little grassy with mild hops, no real bitter domination taking place, finish is on the watery side of acceptable, good but no stand out
2-5-08 re-rate...
Fogged amber with no head, sweet rich nutty hop nose, delicious beer, rich toffee and elaborate malt complexity, dull hop bitters in the finish, but electricly devine. best esb i think i’ve ever had
