Sweet hops nose, Dark copper amber color, nice caramel malt and hops taste. A good brew!

This is another delicious beer. It has a very agreeable crispness. Very light in color but full in taste. Though the Extra Pale Ale is their signature beer this one definately offers more enjoyment.

Beer Engine - Sweet, almost fuity aroma. Moderate malt body. Generous English hops provide a nice balance.

nice, thirst quenching brew. not overly hoppy, and kinda dry ,but certainly high potential for getting one drunk

UPDATED: MAR 25, 2003 Rerate: Had on Tap. Nothing special in the bottle, but on tap this beer is full of flavor, with a great balance between malt and hops- although I would have prefered more hops and more bitterness.

Nice off-white head and lace. The nose is very malty and I get a whiff of chocolate malt. The palate is dry and malty with a touch of hops on the finish. I find this beer to be well crafted and enjoyable, but not over the top in complexity. A good go to beer.

Poured nice golden color with little head and little lacing. Had nice full taste with a sweet citrusy taste with a nice balanced bitter hop finish. I was surprised, this was pretty good.

I liked this one even though it was not what I was expecting--it was not at all bitter, for one. Cold tasting. Very fruity, and in a subtle way. Very very smooth. My only complaint is that there was a very slight sweetness to the malt that I did not like, although I only started to notice it towards the end of the bottle. Extremely pleasant, and relatively complex aftertaste. Overall a very likeable beer, very subtle and complex.

An exceptionally well balanced ESB, with good malt sweetness paired with a background of bitterness. There’s also a nice hint of hop aroma. Maybe a bit lacking on body for an ESB but other very good.
