only a mild bitterness, which is actually fine by me. some heavy floral notes going on in this one. pretty sweet, with some fruity notes like a peeled red apple and some cherry and carmel. decent

Bottle. Medium, creamy, off-white head with large bubbles. Deep, clear, amber-red hue. Big caramel/toffee aroma. Also, cherry skins, floral and grassy hops. Moderately sweet, lightly bitter flavor. Moderately sweet, moderately bitter finish. Medium body, watery texture, lively carbonation. Smells good but the flavor just isn’t as strong. Caramel seems absent in the taste.

Pours a nice deep clear red with a medium off-white head. Caramel and biscuit in the nose. Flavor has notes of toasted malt, caramel, toffee and a generous helping of bittering hops. Pleasantly sweet, nicely balanced with the bitterness. Medium bodied with a smooth texture and lively carbonation. Overall, nicely done.

An orange and caramel aroma. A dark amber aooearance. A very malty flavor with a hint of caramel and some orange peels. The body is somewhat thin and the aftertaste is slightly bitter. Overall not bad.

Plummy, fruity with sweet medium toast malt and crisp hops in the nose. Body is clear ruby with a thinnish off white head. Ruch malt, nice dark fruitiness, brown sugar/maple. Sweet but still crisp finish.

(12 oz bottle: Chevy Chase Liquors in Washington, DC) I’ve had this beer in the past and thought it wasn’t very flavorful, so I let this one sit awhile. Looks like the aging has paid off, as the flavor component shows a bit more boldness this time around. It’s toasty and malty, fairly sweet and unfortunately a bit sugary, with a moderate bitterness for decent balance. A slight floral nature is a bit of a distraction, but overall, this is a pretty tasty beer. A toasty, slightly earthy maltiness dominates the nose, but there’s a hint a floral aroma in the background. Medium bodied, nice carbonation, and a round, long-lasting mouthfeel. The deep amber body shows excellent clarity and is capped by a pretty typical head: off-white in color, half an inch in height, and settling to a ring. Lacing is pretty much non-existent. Not too shabby, this aged ESB.
