Dec 10, 2007 Lightly roasted malt aroma. Amber color with a decent near-white head. Thin to medium body with near creamy carbonation. The flavor is more malty than hoppy. Definitely caramel, but the hop is hard to pin down. Somewhat spicy, perhaps floral. The finish is less than dry, but there is enough hop to balance. Fits the ESB style, but perhaps the hop aromas are a bit lacking. Decent stuff.

Dec 12, 2004 A lighter amber coloring with a large creamy white head. Aroma is earthy malts with some floral notes. The taste has a syrupy sweet consistency with little in the way of balancing bittering hops. Also a note of bubblegum. Not one of the better bitters I have had. However, I can appreciate that this is organic. I assume they chose an ESB because of the lower hopping rate. Thanks Secret Santa.

Oct 24, 2004 Hazy amber w/ finger of white foam. Aroma of caramel, toffee, & brown sugar w/ some spicy, floral hops. Medium, somewhat resiny feel. Fairly malty flavour of caramel & toffee w/ some spicy, earthy hop undertones. Finish is decently bitter & lingers for a bit.
