| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jan 5, 2009 Draft at Isaac’s: Poured an amber color with not much head. The aroma was sweet hops. The flavor was sweet and slighly bitter. Not as bitter as some I’ve had. Overall, when comparing ESB’s, this one falls to the middle of the pack. RasterMaster (121), , Oklahoma, USA

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Dec 27, 2008 Amber/Brown pour with a smallish head that quickly fades, very limited lacing... Slightly sweet, subtle earthy hops...I agree that the malts are a bit too sweet, but by and by a good example... riversideAK (2664), Shoreline, Washington, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Dec 24, 2008 Brownish orange pour with a nice lasting head and some good lacing. The aroma is pretty sweet and malty, some caramel, toast, chocolate perhaps. Hops are somewhat earthy and sweet - I guess that would be grassy. THe flavor is sweet and malty with a grassy pepper hop finish. I thought the malt profile was too sweet, the finish was decent and bitter though. Eh whatever. lithy (1650), Knoxville, Tennessee, USA

Big caramel malt, sweet and sticky on the nose. Taste is more an amber than ESB with mostly caramel malt and a light herbal bitterness.
