VitaminR (303), Colorado, USA Feb 10, 2008 Citrus and spicy nose. Honey orange color. mild resiny bitterness. Decent malt balance, could be a little sweeter. Good body, pillowy head. A solid ESB
Dandman629 (20), Ashburn, Virginia, USA Oct 30, 2008 This beer has a light copper almost gold color with a white frothy head. AS far as the scent of this beer, I didnt get much from it. The palate is crisp and subtle. The taste is slightly bitter and very malty. Overall this is a decent ESB. ScottB (44), Jacksonville, Florida, USA Oct 28, 2008 Pours a hazy copper with a thick, rocky off-white head. I detect more of the malty sweetness on the nose. The bitterness of the hops takes center stage in the mouth, however. A passable brew, but not one of my favorites. jimmack34 (93), Ohio, USA Oct 25, 2008 Bottle. Pours golden with crisp head. Smells rich with hops. Tastes bitter as the name suggests. Nothing real distinctive stands out as far as flavor and smell goes other than just good hops. I would like to try this one again soon and maybe give a better review. j12601 (46), Poughkeepsie, New York, USA Oct 17, 2008 Bottle.
Hazy dark amber with a slowly deflating white head. Big hoppy aroma with light yeast notes. Medium bodied and softer than I would have anticipated without much bite. Finish develops slowly into a welcome bitter.
Syd (765), Waconia, Minnesota, USA Oct 12, 2008 Bottle pours clear amber with a decent and clingy white head. The aroma is orange and bread. The flavor is has a decent amount of orange marmalade and bread malt notes, with some hops to balance it out. The palate is a bit too lively for my tastes with an ESB, but decent bodied none the less. Overall, glad I tried it.
