| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Mar 2, 2009 22 ounce bottle in pint glass. Amber with lasting head and lace. Mild toasted caramel fruity hop aroma. Mild toasted caramel with ripe fruit and clean finish. Pretty mild all around. Medium body and medium-high carbo with a little fizziness in the finish. A nice fresh well made beer that isn’t very interesting. Could be toastier/maltier with creamier mouthfeel. nickd717 (1386), Palo Alto, California, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Feb 22, 2009 A good ESB but far from AleSmith’s best offering. Dark amber color with a nice off-white head. Aroma is floral hops and sweet malt. Flavor is well-balanced but not incredibly interesting. Caramel malt and a sour/bitter finish with some citrusy hops. Smooth palate, medium body. HonkeyBra (1360), Lemont, Illinois, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Feb 20, 2009 Bomber from AlexsDad06, Thanks man! Amber pour with a huge, thick white head. Spicey, fruity aroma. Flavor is smooth, light hops and spiciness. Nice mouth feel. Fun to drink, thanks Brad! spikester (602), Salem, Oregon, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Feb 18, 2009 Pours clear dark amber with a one finger off white head. Fair amount of lacings. Aroma is fruity almost perfume like. Fruity taste with very mild amount of hop bitterness. Smooth mouthfeel perhaps a bit under carbonated. Since there is no date on this bottle that I can decipher and given the good reviews that most Alesmith products recieve, I can only assume this is an old bottle. Overall fairly sweet, fruity, and just a touch of hops.
