Big fan of this beer. Poors a ruby brown that is llightly cloudy. It taste to me like a brown ale with a hint of raspberry that has been smoked. The body is medium with a clean slighy bitter finish.

A nice looking red, smells of fruit certainly palpable. Medium hoppiness, but very weak on the palate- not complex at all.

ESB... really? This is not your typical premium bitter. Very dark and very rich, but extremely drinkable. Aroma is hops with a bit of a nutty quality. Flavours of fruity malt with a nice earthly hop content. Unique.

500 ml bottle. Pours a dull mahogany with an ample tan head. Malty nose with a touch of fruit. Roasty malt profile balanced by an adequate bitterness.

Poured dark brown with a thick white head. Caramel malt in the nose. Flavor of caramel malts, hops, bread, and slight hints of dark fruit. Finishes finishes average with a slight bitterness. Decent.
