Dec 19, 2009 Bottle. Hazy copper with an overgrown off-white head. Glass is almost all foam on the first pour. After the foams dies off, there’s nutty and earthy notes atop spicy hops, caramel, and light toffee. Taste is caramel, pear, light melon, nuttiness, spicy hops and earthy notes. Light toffee and honey here. Body is light-medium with strong carbonation. Ends with more nutty flavors, earthy and spicy hops, and toffee.

Nov 24, 2009 Head is too thin and the beer is too bubbly. A prune and raisin sweetness with a strong alcohol smell. Palate has a nice hoppy kick. It tastes too sweet and the hops are not strong enough to counter the sweetness. Not a good example of a ESB.

Nov 23, 2009 Medium amber, decent head. Roast and caramel aroma. Flavor matched. Roast notes really shown through without going into coffee territory. Very good balancing bitterness. Quite nice for a style I am picky about.

Nov 8, 2009 Courtesy ChzMan. Copper/orange, white carbonation. Biscuity malt and floral, bitter, grassy hops. Dry, bitter finish. Medium body, highly carbonated, easy to drink. Nice hoppy session brew.

Oct 19, 2009 Eh, it’s okay. Far too much fluffy head for this style. Lots of citrus in the nose and the flavor is mostly citrus too. Light, bright, and drinkable, but that’s the extent of it.

Oct 4, 2009 Slightly yeasty flavor. The beer is very sweet with an orange malt nut flavoring. There is a sticky aftertaste that lingers on the tongue.
