Jul 29, 2009 Tastes like a hoppy Baltic Porter that’s not too sweet. Lots of caramel, with tobacco (like flavor) and bitter hops noticeable.

Jul 20, 2009 Sampled as part of a sixer. A really nice brew. Not sure if it has quite as much hops and malts as I expect from an ESB. Good malts though and a nice drinking brew. Pours dark brown with a nice lacey head. Great drink.

Jul 16, 2009 Bottle from 3 Sons. Really nice with lots of emphasis on Malt, still plenty of hops at finish cloudy honey color, not much head or lacing but really full flavored.

Jul 13, 2009 This is a top notch ESB. Malty aroma with a touch of bitterness. Flavor is malt sweetness with a big bitter finish. Just what the style should be.
