Appears very nice orange-amber color with a decent head. Medium bodied malty that carries into a bitter hops finish. More hops than I expected for an ESB but overall this was very enjoyable.

Copper color, thin white head. Grassy hop aroma. Flavor was hoppy and bitter with a bit of malt. Medium body. Not bad at all.

Caramel and hop mousse conceive peach-bearing conifers...Muscular citrus hops bullying a few scared mangos...Pepper melodies are barely heard but still compliment the boisterous festivites...Thanks Lubiere!!...

Slight hazy amber. White finger of foam. Fruity, malty nose w/ light hops accents. Medium, somewhat sticky feel. Malty flavour w/ fresh, piny hops. Delightful finish.

grassy hop aroma thats a bit mellow. golden to golden/yellow in color. light straw tasteing malts with a resinous, herbal, moderately bitter finish. hops last at the finish as well, over a very nicely hopped session beer.

Amber colour with far more hops than I expected from an ESB. Nice hoppy aroma, flavour seemed a bit unbalanced. Nice but average.

12/2/2003 Beautiful golden orange coloring, white fluffy head, looks highly carbonated, malty nose, flavor is based entirely on malts, which doesn’t really contain the bitters needed to make me wanna play hops scotch, but it sure is tastey. 10/13/09 sweet creamy malt nose, bold piney noble hops, highly bittered, sweet caramel malts are there too but you have too seek them out behind the bitter edge, grassy
