Oct 22, 2005 12 oz. bottle. Clear amber with a light tan, lasting head. Nice malt aroma with floral hops evident. Smooth mouthfeel with a nice malt base, well balanced by mild hop flavors and bitterness. A very nice ESB, not overpowered by hops as some seem to be.

Sep 14, 2005 Best esb ever, I have tried to brew it for a long time and just cant get it right. This means that I am willing to pay for it, that in itself is a compliment/endorsement

Jan 22, 2005 Thin head but great carbonation to sit and stare at. Light citrus aroma with plenty of hops and some malt. Same with the flavor. Exceptionally well balanced. Less bitter than expected. Some bready malts in there also. Nice, soft mouthfeel. Medium amber in color. Light bitter finish. Good ESB!! Thanks willblake for sharing.

Jan 20, 2005 Orange gold color. Medium sized white foamy head. Aroma is malty, floral and spicy. A medium bodied bitter/ESB. Malts are orangish and sweet. Hops are floral and citrusy. Nicely balanced bitter. Very easy drinking. Very smooth taste. Nice beer. This would make a great session beer, although it is a little high in alcohol at 5.9% for a session beer. But you need to live dangerously once in a while. Mouthfeel is full. Finish is clean and dry. Finish is slightly sweet.
