Hazy copper orange color, off white head and good lacing. Aroma of tea, dark fruit (hints of cherry) pretzel dough, and with a bit of a sour characteristic. Flavor has a slightly sour palate but it’s balanced out nicely with dark malt. Decent beer overall, I would definitely give it another shot.

bmerz (233) - New York, USA - MAY 12, 2012
Bottle. Copper hazy with good initial head and lace. Strong ripe banana fruity and some cinnamon aroma. That continues in the taste with some earthy grain and woody bitterness. Soft but chaulky palate...that is the part I like the most.

Clear copper color with a very minimal head. Aroma includes a bit of sour fruit, a little bit of malt, and a little bready. Taste is bready and mildly hoppy; finishes somewhat bitter. Palate is medium bodied, a little thin with soft carbonation.

I head this beer was great so picked up a couple A - One finger head, off-white. Beer itself is amber to light brown. S - A nice mix of hops, maltiness and barley. It’s a really nice mix but nothing really stands out. T - Hmm. Some deep dark fruits, mild hops and a really really delicious maltiness. Not chocolate but certainly sweet and ark. I like it but the aftertaste is completely flat and goes away fast. M - Nice amount of carbonation. Easy to drink for sure! O - It’s a decent beer. Not amazing but solid and VERY drinkable!

Bottle. Pours clear amber/tawny with an average, creamy light tan to off-white head, medium-short retention with fair to good lacing. Aroma is light fruity esters, earthy and minty hops, light caramel malt, moderate biscuit malt with cedar notes. Flavor is moderate hops and medium bitterness with a supporting malt backbone, light fruity esters, and a dry finish. Medium-light body, low to no warmth, average carbonation.

Thanks to anggrec for this one. Pours a clear amber with a fluffy white head. the aroma is biscuit and a bit of sour fruit. The flavor has the malty sweetness along with just a bit of that sour in the aroma, nicely balanced with a bit of hops. The finish is dry and refreshing. A very good ESB.
