Very malty aroma with brown sugar and dark fruit notes with just a touch of bitterness. Caramel, brown sugar and raisin notes in the taste with a finish of citrus hops. Medium bodied.

Oct 12, 2008 Bottle. Clear amber color, small white head. Not a big aroma, hints of swet malts and faint hops. Good blend of bitterness and malty sweetness with a clean, sharp finish. Not remarkable though very well balanced.

Oct 11, 2008 Pours a nice amber color. Not much in the way of head. A little carbonation. Aroma is malty with a hint of hops. Kind of sweet smelling as well. A little alcohol on the nose? Flavor is good. Nice and smooth with just enough bitter kick at the end. The malt and hops play nicely together. Good beer. Nice ESB.

Oct 10, 2008 Bottle. Pours clear amber with an off white head. Sweet caramel malt aroma with a touch of hops. The flavor is sweet caramel/honey/toffee. This beer relies way to much on general malt sweetness, but doesn’t have much going on otherwise. A little too sweet for my tastes.
