Pors a copper amber with a small white head. Smells hoppy with a touch of honey. Taste was a bit bitter.

Creamy-white head with good lacing. Honey-like amber color and a thin body. Long flavor with fruit touches making it sweet, oily palate.

500ml bottle. Pours dark amber with a slim off white head that leaves almost immediately. Lacing is near nil. Nose is all malts with a hint of caramel. Flavor is more malt, maybe a touch of honey. Body is a bit thin. Finish is just barely sweet, with a light bitterness up front that departs abruptly. Not really bad or anything, but boring, run of the mill. Meh.

500mL bottle. Pours a brown/copper color with small, white head and decent lacing. Aroma of malts and a grass, with an upfront malt flavor that gives way to a bitter finish. Pretty light on the tongue.

Pours a beautiful deep amber with a (dissappearing) off-white head. Meduim sweetness and a light sourness. Aromas of caramel and a slight hint of rauch. Also a mild, half-boring gunpowderish hopsaroma. Light to medium bodied. Short bitter finish.

Bottle. Nice, fruity aroma. Greyish copper colour. Fruity flavour with a nice bitterness. Mild aromatic hoppiness and dusty aftertaste.

A pretty good ESB, especially from a can. Nice flavor, color and cask-like carbonation!

Nitro can - Pours a nice hazy golden orange color. Aromas of nice honey/grapefruit hops. Flavor starts honey malty and then a nice crisp bitter finish.
