| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Jun 13, 2006 2006 vintage via Dave. The beer pours to a glowing orange body with a think creamy looking off-white head. The aroma is grassy and floral toasted hops. The flavor is basic bitter grassiness. Toasty malts. The palate is bitter and grassy feeling. Lightly drying. Almost tastes a little stale. DavidP (1743), Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 1/5 | 7/10 | 2/5 | 13/20 | Jun 13, 2006 Bomber from 2006. Clear amber body, small tan head. Dry caramelly aroma with a hint of grassy hops. Quite bitter flavor that starts with resinous plant stem, lemon rind and grass clippings leading to a basic dry carmel backing. The finish has a resinous sappy plant stem thing going on. Big bitter hop flavor but it’s not all that interesting. If you’re into bitter beers then this is your bag. MIBRomeo (1965), Wisconsin, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Jun 13, 2006 pours a nice orangish brown glow w/ a beautiful thick off white head w/ nice lacing. Heavily orange aroma w/ some light roast grain notes smell is lightly sweet and a bit hot. Palate is light and easy. Not much to it. Flavor is very boring. A dry hoppy finish on top of a basic light piney flavor. I can do with out this one. DYCSoccer17 (2201), Davis, California, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jun 13, 2006 On tap at the Horse Brass pub in Portland, OR. Light, citric, orangey aroma with some biscuity maltiness and some mild toastiness in the nose. Transparent copper color with a frothy off-white/yellowish head. Citrus, sweet, orange bitter hopped start. Toasted malt middle with a bitter, grapefruity hoppiness to finish. A fair amount of dryness is present in this as well. A bit too dry for my palate. Still, not too bad. MrRomero (1934), Nolanville, Texas, USA

Mild malt and light coffee/chocolate aroma. Mild grassy hops in the flavor with medium bitterness int he finish. Odd for an ESB I guess but I did enjoy it.
