12oz. bottle. Slightly cloudy orange color topped with a pleasing beige head. Aroma is a bit faint and unremarkable. The flavor however is then a surprise, holding a tangy citrus and slightly peppery bite. Finishes clean. Most of the hops stay on the middle of the tongue. A little on the dry side for an ESB, but that’s not a bad thing.

Nov 28, 2008 Not really anywhere near an actual English ESB. Overall, nothing really stood out.

Nov 21, 2008 Bottle. Pours a rich copper color with slight off white head. Smells hoppy and sweet. Tastes like bread grains, sweet malts, bittersweet hops, a little sugary. Very good.

Rich, malty beer, full of grainy flavour. Ending up in a dry, well hopped finish. Very nice.
