May 3, 2008 Clear brown and well lacing white head. Spicy and floral german-hop like aroma with caramel malt. really well balanced. Reminds me of Sam Adams Boston lager. finishes nice and dry with a subtle but pleasent hop flavour.

May 2, 2008 This reminds me of a Newcastle with a lot of hops. I usually am not a huge fan of bitters, but this one is pretty damn good.

May 2, 2008 Updated: Dec 6, 2008This flavor has a nice bite to it, similar to a brown ale but obviously with much less malt and much more bitter.

May 1, 2008 Appearance: amber copper color. Medium, compact, and lasting beer with ivory color.
Aroma: caramel malts note and an exquisite fruity touch like apricots and peaches jam and inclusive papayas. A floral and complex hoppy aroma, for the variety of these. Chamomile’s and daisy’s reminiscences, also some banana.
Flavor: caramel malts start, some sweet but not sickly and ephemeral. Quickly dominated for the fruitiness similar to peaches and apricots jam. Some nutty. A complex, with medium intensity, nice, some astringent and lasting dryness for the variety of hops, with some stone-peaches reminiscences. Chamomile and red-tea notes.
Palate: medium body, smooth texture and light to medium carbonation.
Remark: nice fruit jam note, but the best is the complex and captivating hoppiness. Balanced and very advisable beer.

Apr 29, 2008 This beer looks and tastes like i imagine beer ought to taste. Dangerously drinkable...man, i am going to throw a bunch of these in the fridge for whenever i feel like having a perfectly refreshing drink...Have not had a lot of ESB’s (mostly less high quality american ones like redhook) but am really looking forward trying more of the style.
