walrussell (22), , Illinois, USA Jul 2, 2009 Nicely mild beer. Mildly sweet, mildly bitter at the end, very refreshing, easy to chug, and good with indian food. JediMindTricks (142), Hampton, Virginia, USA Jun 27, 2009 Ok. Sweet malts on the nose. Decent maltiness in flavor, but hardly any hop presence. Gets sour in the finish...it is what it is... Archibaldo de la Cruz (307), Finland Jun 25, 2009 Bottle. Copper colour with a medium sized white head. Malty aroma with hints of spices and hops. The flavour is slightly sweet and bitter with some malt and hops. Touch of spices and toffee. Very good, balanced brew. WVHouseofBeer (246), Morgantown, West Virginia, USA Jun 24, 2009 Very smooth, with nice creamy body. Pours a light copper color with a good amount of white head and lacing. This is a nice smooth beer to sit back and relax with on a hot summer day. aaronbr (20), Stanford, California, USA Jun 23, 2009 It could be that I am so dead from flying from San Francisco to London that anything would taste good. Or maybe I’m just filled with the excitement of being in London for the first time as I sip this from my hostel in the heart of Westminster. But this is really making me happy right now. Pours from 500ml bottle a nice amber with lots of persistent lacing. Creamy on the palate, like several pub ales I’ve tried. Pretty sweet, medium bodied, and a nice hoppy kick added in. I’ll look for this one when I’m back Stateside for sure. AmEricanbrew (1493), Port-Au-Shreve, Louisiana, USA Jun 19, 2009 Clear amber with an off white head. Mild spicy hop aroma with sweet pale malts. Medium body. Lightly sweet cracker malt flavors with a mild hop twang to finish. punkeedo (457), San Antonio, Texas, USA Jun 17, 2009 2009 Can. This is not what I expected, though I immensely enjoyed it! Well-made ESB, smells like a balance of malt and hops. Mouthfeel reminiscent of Boddington’s or another British pub ale...creamy yet refreshing. Flavor of hops and malt swirl effortlessly to make this a great example of a good ESB. Ryan82SM (156), Louisville, Kentucky, USA Jun 15, 2009 Poured into a shaker, I must buy an English Pint. I just don’t drink many English beers. Anyway... nutty and vanilla like aroma, resembling almonds. Golden brown pour with a light creamy head. Somewhat malty up front, with caramel and almonds seeping in at the end. Palate was creamy, but not remarkably so. Another overpasteurized, overrated English beer.
