Appearance: bright, deep crimson color, nice 1/4" , bubbly, off-white head.
Aroma: clean and airy, with underlying fruit (grapes, cherries) that flowers, then crisply closes.
Taste: easy entry on the palate, very little standing out, with a swift, forgettable finish. Fruitiness detected in nose recurrs in the flavor, comes back taste after taste, although body and texture are fairly light.
A nice ESB, not bad at all.

Oct 4, 2004 The beer after extraction from the 12-ounce bottle sets in the glass a lightly misty golden amber color with a generous white frothy head that after decomposition leaves a thin but concealing sheet of lace upon the glass. Nose malt dominated and sweet with a light hint of hops, quite crisp and fresh, start is sweet with a fair to middling grain presence and the top moderate in feel. Finish as a stern acidity with a nice pleasant hop spiciness that lingers long on the palate, quite dry and a nice drinkable beer.

Sep 17, 2004 Pours a deep copper with little head. Aroma of slightly bitter hops and bready maltiness. Hop profile in the flavor is a bit one-dimensional, but the maltiness is quite complex. Bready, sweet, yeasty. The Belgian character is noticeable in the sweet tanginess. Dry, hoppy finish. Very enjoyable.

Jul 22, 2004 Updated: Sep 12, 2005Pretty good offering. Deep red-copper color, good nose and fairly complex malty taste though not as hearty or flavorful as it’s imported cousins. Sampled again to check in and enjoyed just the same.

Jul 2, 2004 NJ Brewers Fest. No, I cannot knock a beer for being close to the style intended but I don’t think this is anywhere near. Smallish head, almost amber color and thin body. Mellow almost to a fault and you really have to dig deep for any real taste.

Jul 1, 2004 Nice copper color, lasting scummy cream-colored head and lace. Malt malt/acid aroma, some butterscotch. Sweet malt, mild up front and middle, oily gentle hop flavor. Coating, low bitterness.
