Jan 23, 2007 Pours out a ruby amber color forming very little head. Aroma of malts, hops with a nice pine flavor. A very typical American Strong Ale. Clipper City produces another great beer product. Good beer folks!

Jan 20, 2007 Clear amber pour, evenly dispersed carbonation forming a small, soft off white head with a yellow tint. A thin film of solid lacing eventually forms. This looks like it’s skillfully crafted. Aroma is mostly piney and fruity hops, with a decent amount of caramel malt as well. Flavor is more complex, showcasing additions of marzipan, tart raspberry, flowers and very course but sticky malts. Alcohol in the taste and finish is very hot. Pretty good, a little young tasting. Just underdeveloped a touch in the flavor department, otherwise quite quaffable. This is a beer that has parts that are far more exciting than the whole.

Jan 12, 2007 12oz bottle. Pours nice amber, crystal clear with small tan head that somehow held on till the end. Nice lace. Smells like and tatses like a Imperial IPA but billed as a ESB. I don’t care what they call it, I love it. Nice malt at the end that lingers and overtakes the initial hoppiness. Everything this brewer makes is worthy, this is no exception.

Jan 11, 2007 Extra malted and hopped ESB that has aroma of alcohol along with a bit of hop and malt aroma, is a bit on thin of mouthfeel and has cloudy orangey colour, but taste pretty good. Very dry finish and aftertaste. Could pass as a bit of a strong ale,more so than an IPA. thanks Dr.Jay.

Jan 11, 2007 12oz - Best before 04/07 - Aroma is perfumy hops followed by incense-like malt and sweet caramel. Pours transparent brown with a huge head and great lacing. Flavor matches aroma leaving a fresh flower aftertaste. Palate is creamy and tart. Very different and tasty. Don’t think I could drink very many in one sitting, but still worth a try.
