Aug 21, 2008 This bottle is from August 1, 2007 saved it to rate it, the others I thought were very good and deserved a higher rating. Gave a couple away because I thought they were good enough. The aroma is hops, citrus/pine. The head is white, big with excellent lacing. The color is copper and clear. The initial flavor is light bitter, citrus/pine flavor. The body is light and the texture creamy and a little watery.

Aug 15, 2008 Some hop nose, quite attractive color, with a nice head, nicely balanced, with very light palate. VERY LIGHT throughout all qualities. This tastes like increasing the ingredients would make a very nice beer.

Aug 14, 2008 Why such a low rating?? This beer was quite enjoyable. Nothing to hump a leg over, but it is what it is, simple and tasty. No scent of queef detectable, as is the case in many ESBs. The hops bring a nice subtle bitterness to the maltomeal. Yes, there are better ESBs out there, but who cares? This is a nice little ale that I probably will never buy, but will certainly never turn down a free one.
