Left Hand Sawtooth Ale

Clear copper pour with a medium off-white head. Good looking lace and average retention. Grainy/caramel malt sweetness and low hop aroma, a little diacetyl. Flavor has medium bitterness, moderate earthy hops, sweet malt at the beginning that leads to the hops and finishes dry. Medium body with medium-low carbonation. Good balance. Not much complexity. Decent beer.

Had this one a while back, Bottle to glass. I just wrote down my ratings. Small head, spare lacing. Amber Color. Flavor of mollasses, and light hops.

Bottle. Aroma sweet from malts. Poured amber with off white head. Initial notes of toasted almond. Nice on the tongue. Goes down easy.

Bottle... Poured an amber tone with an off-white head. Bready malts on the nose. Toasted caramel tones with a mild hop presence and a malt finish. Good feeling on the tongue and a soft finish.

Bottle. Poured amber with a white head. Aroma was bitter from hops with an undertones of sweetish malts. Flavor was nice balance of sweet malts and bitter hops.

Bottle from Sam’s. Pours bright copper with thin white head. I tend to forget how much I like this style and often wonder why I don’t see more ESBs around. Crisp bitter hops but with a nice caramel malt presence. Great clean, crisp, light mouthfeel. It’s pretty average, but I like this beer.

Tap. Beer was quite good, aroma ranged from malty to hoppy, and flavors matched aroma.

Bottle. A nice bright copper color body with a thick lasting off-white head leaving some lacing. Aroma is slightly malty,a bit bready,hints of floral hops,slightly sweet. Flavor is malty up front some nice caramel,a touch of bread dough, a little spicy hops and hints of lemon at the finish,lightly bitter,medium body and lively carbonation, grainy,malty aftertaste. Quite drinkable.
