Nov 28, 2006 Beer has a really good taste. Good balance of flavors, not too hoppy or malty.

Nov 28, 2006 Overrated. I love BridgePort, but this did not sit well at our table. I think it’s a bit too Red Hook-ish.

Nov 18, 2006 Pours a rich, red-brown with a thick beige head; good lacing. Aromas of malt, nuts, and grass with a bit a spice; noticeable hop bouquet. Flavor of hops at front balanced with a bit of malty sweetness. Could stand to have more body and/or a more complex palate. Finishes very clean. Pretty good but I think I’ll stick with Fuller’s ESB in the future.

Nov 5, 2006 Pours dark golden with orangish tints with a thin, mostly receding light beige head. Aroma of musky alefruits, citrus, and piney hops. Mouthfeel is medium bodied and slightly resinous.

Oct 24, 2006 On tap at Bridgeport, Portland. Amber colour with lasting off white head. Perfumed aroma. Slightly spicey. Bit empty on the malt. Some toffee, bit like an ESB, but not really. OK

Sep 27, 2006 Pours an orangey copper with a 1/4 inch creamy ivory head. Persistent sheeting lace. Nice pale malt with sweet herbal hops.
Taste is much the same. Sweetish pale malt, sweet herbal hops. Strident bitterness in the finish but nicely balanced with the malt. Nothing overcomplicated here, just well crafted and tasty ESB.

Sep 24, 2006 Medium amber in color. Quickly dissipating head with a slightly beige color. Substantial lemon/citrus and pine aroma to it with some telltale hoppiness. Pleasing roasted malt flavors with some tasty hoppiness that keeps going through a lingering finish. Decent carbonation.
This was my first Bridgeport and it will not be my last one. Kudos to a solid brew with a very good Quality : Price ratio!

Sep 15, 2006 Balanced spruce hops and malt with a maple notes. Lots of character to this brew. Creamy mouthfeel but not too heavy. One of the better ESB’s I’ve had.
