Jan 7, 2006 Clear bronze pour with some red highlights and an intitially frothy white head. Caramel and light fruit in the aroma as well as a sweet maltiness. Hops shine in the taste, with a nice bitittering on the palette, fading to a smooth malty finish. Pretty well balanced. Some floral hoppiness lingers well past the finish. I like ESB’s and this makes a great every-day drinking beer, although it is a bit pricey where I am.

Jan 2, 2006 Bottle from Styles. Crystal clear, reddish orange color. Rochy white head fades down fairly quickly leaving scant lacing behind. Aroma is a blend of caramel and some vegetal hop. Light bodied and watery at times. Sweet caramel is balanced with a mild earthy bitterness.

Dec 28, 2005 An excellent ESB. Pours a pleasant ruby bronze with a decent head. Good balanced flavor between the malt and the hops with neither dominating. Smooth finish makes this a great session ESB.

Dec 26, 2005 Pours a clear copper bronze with a frothy, lightly-lacing off-white head. Dry toasty caramel malty aroma has a touch of light fruit and English hops. Starts with a wet, semi-sweet palate and some candy flavor before finishing lightly toasty and sweet. A decent ESB.

Dec 23, 2005 Updated: Dec 27, 2005This is a tasty ESB. I bought it at a specialty beer store for almost $9 / six pack. It is very good, but at this price, it better be! Very smooth.

Dec 21, 2005 Deep amber with a soft head. Smells sweet, malty. Plenty of spicy english hop in the flavor. Finishes smooth, flavor fades quickly into a mildly sour aftertaste. Well-balanced, maybe a touch thin on the malt side. This is a decent beer, BUT this is the last time I’m paying $9+ for a 6-pack of Stoudt. I just don’t don’t think they are as good as their super-premium pricing.
