Stoudts Scarlet Lady Ale ESB

Grassy, nutty and earthy hop aromas. The pour has a diminishing head and looks clear dark umber. Solid hop bitter notes, wrapped inside of light fruit and caramel. Finish is nicely bitter and crisply dry-hopped. Good, solid brew here.

I was surprised to see that I had not rated this one yet as I have had quite a bit of it over the last year or two. Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a ruby chestnut color with a small tan head. The aroma is fruity, sour and has a bit of nut and moderate fruity hops. The flavor is sour nut with a tangy and lightly fruity character and a dry hoppy finish. Tasty if a little uninspired.

Pours out a nice amber color with a small head. Flavor fairly nice, but needs a bit more zing to it. Not to bad

Interesting. Red/brown colored pour. Taste is sweet and interesting. Malty and slightly hoppy, easy to drink too. Pretty good beer, seems to be a fairly solid brewery.

Bottle. Clear copper-coloured with an average, not very long-lasting, off-white head. Aroma is predominantly malty balanced by some citrus hoppiness. Sweet toffee flavours with offsetting bitterness. Good carbonation, light to medium body. Well-made, but not memorable.

Reddish-brown pour with light-brown head. Sweet and malty aroma. The flavor is very true to form- nicely balanced and finishes malty with a hint of bitterness.

12 oz bottle. Deep copper/amber colour, thick tan head. Aroma is quite woody and spicy. Sweet caramel malt, very leafy and tobaccoish. Flavour is very sweet. Caramel, toast and lots of brown sugary sweetness. Leafy hop flavour but it’s totally overwhelmed by the sticky malts. Slightly nutty. Earthy hop finish. It’s okay, but I’d take a Boomer’s Red over this any day.

this beer is rich and has s good smooth little water taste too it, with slight bitterness. nice hops good for a beer that only has 5% alcohol.
