Jun 3, 2008 This ESB pours a medium copper color from the tap at the brewpub. Medium sized white foamy head. The aroma is bready and malty, touch of hops. A medium bodied ESB. The malts are caramel and sweet. The hops are earthy and floral, but kind of subdued. Could use a little more bitterness. Nice carbonation. Good balance. Mouthfeel is full. Finish is clean and smooth. Aftertaste is slightly bitter.

Jan 23, 2008 Not bad, not exemplary but a very drinkable bitter. Detectable bitterness throughout, could have used a bit more maltiness, but decent. A great beer with the pizza.

dark amber, frothy beige head, good lace, good sweet carmel malt aroma with nice hops to balance, low bitterness leading to a nice finish, bigger carmel sweetness than the typical esb but it makes for a great drinking beer
