| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Aug 13, 2006 Poured from bottle into a shaker, it had a light tan head (med retention) on top of a clear, coppery colored body. Caramel- type malts and some herbal hops in the aroma. Flavor showcased more continental hops. Medium- bodied and well balanced. Very drinkable! WhiteSoxFan (152), USA
| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Aug 9, 2006 12 oz. bottle from Morgan’s. Drank on 7/25/06. Very clear. Light copper, nice 1+" creamy white head. Drops very slowly. Huge lacing. Big layer of foam stays around until the end. Aroma - not too strong. Faint scent of some bready type malts. Little bit of spicy type english hops. Flavor - nice and bitter on the tongue. Really nice and balanced through the swallow. Some classic ESB flavors after the swallow. Mostly some mellow, bready malty flavors. Really good. Pal - Solid medium. Good carb. Overall - Really good ESB, which is more and more becoming one of my favorite styles. Nice bitterness, but overwhelming flavors are malty. Easy drinking and plenty of flavor. This one is going to become a standard in my beer fridge. oh6gdx (8839), Vasa, Finland
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Aug 7, 2006 Bottled. Pale golden colour, mediumsized bubblyish head. Strong hoppy and honeyish aroma. The flavour is mainly flowery hops. Strong hayish hoppy aftertaste. SledgeJr (2960), Omaha, Nebraska, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Aug 6, 2006 In the bottle. Pours gold with a reticulated white foamy head. Amazing web-like lacing coats the sides of the glass with enthusiastic adhesion. Aroma mild with a tea-like scent. Long, long bitter aftertaste. A slow burn, if you will. The palate is balanced- bitter, malt caramel, and gypsum. Not at all over the top, just darn good. vyvvy (2043), Hazelwood, Missouri, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Aug 1, 2006 Pours clear copper with a white soapy head. Aromas strikes me as being sweet and citric. Medium body with a creamy frothy feel, but the carbonation is spritzy and sharp. Taste has sweet malt with spicy hops. Fizzy carbonation comes in - after the carbonation effect dies off what’s left is spciy hops with bits of woodiness. The taste seems to have traces of tea. An okay ESB.
