cloudy orange, small offwhite head.
aroma is dominatd by bitterhops , caramel and toffee. faint smoke or burned plastic. not very appetizing.
flavor is caramelly, herbal, bitterhoppy, faint sawdust. much better than aroma, a little too bittersweet for my taste though. Theis (3698), Denmark

| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Apr 5, 2009 1 pt. bottle. Pours a hazy amber/orange with a small, creamy, white head. The head is pretty quick to fade. Honey, heather, a touch of yeast, and a bit of citrus in the nose. Medium low carbonation with a dry mouthfeel and a light body. Honey notes, malt, and a solid bitterness on the palate. It is okay, but nothing spectacular. jujubeast6000 (777), Houston, Texas, USA

Pours a cloudy orange red body, dark. Foamy whitish colored head, diminishing. Sweet fruit aroma. Very dusty musty English smelling aroma. Watery, not carbonated honey taste. Sweet tasting but not sickly palate, or taste. Very English tasting. SudsMcDuff (1691), was CapeTown,SA-now Houston, Texas, USA

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Mar 17, 2009 Pours a deep amber with almost no head. Aroma of plums and English hops. Taste is the same with sweet malt and understated bitterness. While not one of my favorite ESBs, it’s a pleasant session beer nonetheless. madquacker (713), Canberra ACT, Australia
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Mar 11, 2009 Ruby red colour with grippy sour grapes and strong grains. Quite chewy. very nice alse. Powertrip (190), Calgary, Alberta, Canada
| 2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 4/5 | 3/10 | 3/5 | 7/20 | Mar 8, 2009 A small redeaming feature is the crisp pureness to the taste....but that crisp pureness holds very little body and character, with zero aftertaste and absolutely nothing on the nose. I tried hard to pick out the barley in this one and I’m sure it did add to the pureness...but it certainly didn’t play the tasteful role I expected. Unfortunate here as I love organics...
