Generally mediocre ESB, lacking the typical creamy consistency with a decent amount of non-biting hops. Not bad, but not great.

| 1.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 7/20 | Nov 30, 2009 Bottled 50cl. Awful aroma of boiled vegetables, malt, compost, caramel, butter, apple and boiled milk. A lot of diacetyl showing up in the taste. Very low bitterness. Sweet and slightly sour with apple appearing. Unpleasant finish. Very dissapointing. hawthorne00 (106), Australia
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Nov 29, 2009 Bottle. Gold, foamy white head. Fruit and citrus nose. Possibly some elderberries. Sweet malts with light balancing bitterness and a touch of sourness. Middle-of-the-road bottled bitter. (Oops, spoke too soon): by the end of the pint it seemed oversweet and rather less pleasant - reducing from 3.3 to 2.8. islay (477), Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Nov 26, 2009 Small pour from 12 oz. bottle. Tangy aroma features melon, dust, and lemon scents. Pours a light brass with very little, non-white head. Standard English bitter taste: Fruity with a tangy, lemon zest finish. Light body. Crisp in the palate. Boring and forgettable but not objectionable and in fact sessionable. ttutony (68), Texas, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 2/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Nov 15, 2009 Amber color in the glass. Somewhat fruity aroma. Light, a little metallic. Pretty average. Nothing too bad, nothing too amazing either. Sledutah (87), Utah, USA

Appearance: Pours a dark copper with small while head, leaves no lace in the glass.
Aroma: Fruity malt
Taste: Grainy malts with little hop flavor. Kind of sour at the end.

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Nov 13, 2009 Clear gold/copper pour with white head. Mostly malt, caramel, a bit of biscuits, citrus, and a small amount of hops. Pretty standard beer, not very interesting. Bov (5477), Bienne, Switzerland
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Nov 2, 2009 courtesy of Allen - slightly hazy dark blond colour with a little and persistent white foam; superb lacing; aroma of caramel and herbs; soft mouthfeel, moderate malt body, late and fair bitterness; dry herbal and slightly honeyish aftertaste - easy and pleasant
