3.3 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 15/20
An amber beer with a small but OK head. It doesn’t have much aroma. The feel is a little bit flat, but the flavor is fantastic of a great malt blend with an OK bitterness yet only slight. A great beer.
3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
(Bottle 50 cl) Deep nutty brown with a reddish hue and a small, creamy head. Very full-bodied and surprisingly strong. Malty and spicy with a nutty character and a certain sweetness. Impressive hop composition. 200301
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
50 cL bottle. Pours clear and deep golden orange with a lacing white head. Dense caramel malt aroma, light chocolate touch. Flavour is sweet caramel malt with a light edge towards the finish. Mild dry bitterness following this to give a nice and smooth balance into the finish. Light fruity touch in the far finish. Nice one.

Bottled. Reddish brown, decent white foamy head. Mainly malty aroma with hints of fruit. Fruity sweet taste which turns bitter. This one has a nice long bitter aftertaste.

Dark amber. Malty, chewy somewhat sweetish. One of th emore bitter British beers. The first ever ESB I tried, and still the one that defines the style for me.

3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
[Hand pumped, 19-11-2002, 6-4-7-4-14 (3.5)] Amber color, with just a thin collar, beautiful lace. Light aroma of hop. Good mix of hop, malt, light caramel almost turning into faint liquorice; waving between sharp bitterness and a residual sweetness; tar. Ending with a not too aromatic, but extra bitter final.
[Keg, 14-07-2002, 3-3-6-4-13 (2.9)] Amber colour, misty, poor head. Poor aroma. Despite the deceiving aroma, it has a pretty good taste: a quite light malt, that still can give consistency to the body (which is enough smooth, with some sweetness), and a rather powerful hopping, with a long and quite good final.
