Reid (1085), Salem, Oregon, USA Jun 16, 2008 Golden beer with a small white head.
Peppery, spicy hop aromas, some malts.
Falvour is mostly thick sweet malts , backed by peppery hoppiness, curious long lasting mild bitter ness.
Nice on the palate, quite smooth, almost silky.
Overall a nice Golden ale...i dont think this can be considered an "ESB". bhensonb (4187), Woodland, California, USA Jun 15, 2008 Bottle. Hazy, light golden color with a white head. Light citrus hop aroma, backed by some light malt. Thin to medium body with fizzy/creamy carbonation. Flavor is mild malt with lemon citrus hop, and noble hop. Finish is dry and decently bitter. Leaves a spice tingle in the mouth. Skyview (4007), Papoose Jct., Minnesota, USA Jun 7, 2008 Received 12-oz bottle from Liquid Solutions.biz in Portland, Oregon. Pours a semi-clear golden yellow brew with an average sized white head that slowly dissipates to a fine film and ring. Aroma of golden grain malts, a touch of citrus zest, some light fruit and a touch of lemon. Taste is light to medium bodied, some carbonation with flavors of golden grain malt, a touch of lemon zest and some grassy hops. Finish has a mild white bread dough aftertaste with some remaining citrus zest that slowly disappears. Gooney (53), Oregon, USA Jun 2, 2008 12 oz bottle from New Seasons - Poured yellow. Smells a bit like a macrobrew; PBR? Tastes better, though. Nice balance. Good summer beer. boFNjackson (1233), Portland, Oregon, USA May 31, 2008 Bottle... Poured pale, yellow with a white head. Herbs and grains on the nose. Crisp and refreshing palate-very thirst quenching. Flavors of lemon grass and other citrus note that blend with the hops nicely. Pretty mild beer, not as bad as I thought it would be. spikester (602), Salem, Oregon, USA May 18, 2008 Updated: Jun 11, 2008Pours cloudy amber with a modest white head. Aroma is floral, herbal.
Taste is slightly bitter grapefruit with a rich malt side as well. The bitterness is somewhat astringent and lingers a long time. Excellent ESB, I must have more! Angeloregon (2024), Portland, Oregon, USA Dec 18, 2007 Poured a light straw copper color with a medium-sized white cap. Nose of grains and stinging hops. Citrus aroma came out more as beer warmed up. Mildly bitter and fruity finish. BuckeyeBoy (1645), Boise, Idaho, USA Jun 24, 2007 On Tap at the Old Boise Brew Fest 07 pours out a cloudy gold topped with a white head. A nice little light hop just a little bitter not bad.
