The Lady pours a gorgeous bronze body and a thick tan cap of head. The aroma and flavor are boldly malty: with its large notes of burned sugars, hint of honey and a herbal blend fading into the background. I’m finding notes of cereal, particularly Kelloggs Frosted Flakes, “They’re GERT!” Definitely some hoppy bitterness in the finish.. with a hint of lemongrass and a slight suggestion of pine. It’s rather earthy and woody… cedar like spiciness. I Absolutely Love this Brewery! OhioDad (2491), Hilliard, Ohio, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | May 29, 2005 12 oz bottle - Pours copper with a slight offwhite head. Aroma was citrus with a strong background of caramel malts. Flavor is very balanced good sweet malts and a slight hop bitter finish that is quite tasty. On the palate this is medium bodied and really hangs with you. Good beer. I like this brewer. wnhay (722), Princeton, New Jersey, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | May 1, 2005 Sampled in the 12 ounce bottle. Good imitation of the style. Poured copper with a minimal white head. Aroma was very fruity and had tea as well. Fruity taste which was not overly bitter. I think Stouts did a pretty good job here. thehinge (244), Wilmington, Delaware, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Apr 3, 2005 I catch a hint of fruits and malt in the aroma....very nice. Pours into glass with a tan color and small off white head. The first beer I’ve seen with such a small head.....yet bubbly as you drink. Like the balance in carbonation.
Now to the taste. Gives ya a good little shot of hops and then a small bit of fruit in the end....lemon perhaps. Mouthfeel is fairly crisp...what I would expect from this style.
Stoudt has been a small brewer since 1962, and for good reason. I have not been disappointed with one of their beers yet. Go get one of them. swirl (267), collingswood, New Jersey, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Mar 27, 2005 A nice copper ale with some floral hops aroma and a slight spiciness. The taste is full and refreshing with som pepper notes. willblake (2174), Belcamp, Maryland, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Mar 23, 2005 03.23.05 12oz bottle dated 05.29.05 Dark copper pour with smallish head that quickly fades. Smells earthy, toffee, vanilla, tea. I smell tea a lot in beer...wonder if that has anything to do with drinking a lot of tea? Mild malts are pushed to stick with floral and sharp hops. Lightly floral all around. It’s a quaffer, but ESB is just not usually a thrill from a bottle. skisangelo (60), Collingswood, New Jersey, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 2/5 | 17/20 | Mar 23, 2005 A pleasant malty taste up front, followed by a strong bitter bite and finishes with a slightly bitter/malty flavor. Average looking, but beautiful tasting. A good ESB.
