Clear copper poor with rusty hues with a fast fading off-whit head. Aromas of sweet candy sugar, malty, beans and pears. Palate starts very sweet but very quickly hits you with a crisp bitterness. Medium bodied with a somewhat metallic feel. Flavors are very malty, buttery, certain hops are present, impressive details for a Trafalgar brew.

Jul 14, 2008 650ml bottle: Murky red colour with fine beige head. Fruit tart and hops in the nose. More fruit and spice in the taste...week malt character. Thick palate with bitter end. Stylistically enigmatic.

Jul 7, 2008 Bottle: Poured a light hazy brown color ale with a small bubbly head with no retention and no lacing. Aroma of dry lightly bitter English hops is the only discernable characteristic. Taste is also dominated by light English dry hops with no discernable malt profile. It might be due to low carbonation but this beer appears to be stale. This was definitely not true to the style or anywhere close to being interesting.

Jun 18, 2008 uh oh...........trafalgar beer. Well i come in expecting the worse. Nice amber pour, a good looking ESB pour. A nice nose of english hops, and a touch of malt. Hmm, wow, this doesnt taste like pond water! This is actually a decent beer, some nice hopping, but i would prefer more malt. tasty beer, but i would consider it a well hopped golden ale than an ESB.

Jun 8, 2008 Was very surprised when I drank this beer, very pleased.
Pours a red orange colour with no head. Aroma is very sweet, big notes of toffee and dried fruit. The flavour is perfectly hoppy, buttery, a little bit of citrus, the finish is a tad soapy though. All and all a pretty friggin good beer for a decent price and from a local brewery. CHEERS!
