A good golden color with a nice head, A decent hoppy aroma with a slight bready maly nose. Misses the ESB style but the beer was good to drink, For a bitter it was too light int he bitter flavor. Needs work on the bitter end. Ouch did I say that.

excellent hop and malt balance. a little too hoppy for esb style. pours a nice ruby/copper color with little head. very nice beer but not to style. it would probably get killed in a competition due to this.

Bottled Amber colour. Citric aroma from hops and very tea-like. Resiny flavour with a wonderful hop profile, that’s fresh and citrusy. Very well balanced, maybe a bit one-dimensional.

Everything in moderation here. Amber color, caramel malty body with mild grapefruit bitterness. Crisp, semi-sweet finish. Refreshing!

First time trying an ESB. Not as ESB as I thought but still very good. Pour a nice bark brown and had a nice thick foam head that lasted a while. The smell was a little week from an ESB in my opinion. The taste and drinkability were both really good.

beer pours a ruby-tinted amber, with a well-formed head (white w/orange tints) that retains and laces well. nose a nice balance of caramel malts and earthy hops. flavor a good blend of sweetness and earthy hop bitterness, with a light body. pretty good drinker - a fair amount of flavor, but not heavy or anything.

Golden amber body with light white head. Aroma is lots of citrus hops. Dry on the mouth throughout with nice citrus hops flavouring the beer. Good but nothing overly special.
