Handsome, crystal clear amber ale with a large, creamy, white head. Thick, creamy lacing.
The flavor and aroma are both pretty nondescript. Very light butterscotch notes in the aroma and flavor. Well-balanced, but way too thin and watery. Medium carbonation. Crisp, lightly bitter finish.

Copper color, light head, lots of lacing. The nose of bright malty and citrusy hops. Nice and rich, not too much hops though. This is what an ESB should taste like. Finish is chewy, light toffee and cocoa, some coffee and a lingering garlic and anchovie taste (hmm, wonder why?) TheBeerGod (3171), Newport News, Virginia, USA
