Bottle at home - shared with Mette. Cloudy amber/red - white head. Rather bitter, roasted, nutty, caramel, brown sugar, spicy/herbal, dryness, a bit too simple.

Draft. Orange, cherry, and caramel malt aroma. Hazy amber with moderate head. Sweet orange, caramel malt, and mildly bitter dry grass hops flavor. Very enjoyable.

Bottle (from backlog). Burnt copper color. Malt and bread aromas. Maybe a bit of fruit. Just OK.

20th May 2011
Hazy red amber beer, tidy white head. Light dry palate. Vibrant fruits - tangy orange and tangerine and a little grapefruit. Traces of plum and red berry fruits. All quite tangy. Dry finish. Tasty fruity beer and off the beaten track for the style. Another winner from Shorts.
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
12 oz bottle...nice rendition of an American ESB. Good balance between the slightly sweet malt and hoppiness. Great session ale.

Reddish, amber in color, slightly cloudy. Tastes like an above average amber, but has a unique spice finish.
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Picked this up in a mixed of Short’s for $11, overpriced. Tan-orange color with a white head, looks good. Smells like a malty ESB but nothing jumps out as special, average. Taste is malty and reminds me of an English ESB so that’s good. This was a decent beer but for $11 I expect a lot more.

Nicely smooth ESB with an appropriate hint of hop bitterness and dryness on the finish.
