Dec 30, 2007 12 ounce bottle from a mixed 8 pack that was purchased at Nugget in Woodland, CA. Aroma is a bit sour with some lemon notes. Light metallic aroma with a touch of graininess. Mostly transparent amber body with an off-white head that is medium. Leaves decent lacing. Strange astringent, sour infected flavors to start. Light grainy maltiness in the middle. More metallic hops later. Partially infected. Unsatisfactory.

Dec 15, 2007 Looks like a typical ESB. Has a nice malt aroma with a bit of hops. Not bad flavor, fairly balanced, just not to exciting, would like a little more hop flavor.

Dec 10, 2007 Lightly roasted malt aroma. Amber color with a decent near-white head. Thin to medium body with near creamy carbonation. The flavor is more malty than hoppy. Definitely caramel, but the hop is hard to pin down. Somewhat spicy, perhaps floral. The finish is less than dry, but there is enough hop to balance. Fits the ESB style, but perhaps the hop aromas are a bit lacking. Decent stuff.

Dec 5, 2007 Bottle. Rich copper/amber beer with a decent cream-colored head. Light malt aroma. Citrus, sweet malt and caramel flavor with a bit of spice. Medium body. Sweet malt lingers with a bit of tinniness.

Dec 3, 2007 Bottle. Pours a hazy gold with thin head. Aroma is malt, sweet, slightly caramel. Flavor is moderately sweet, malty, lightly syrup and caramel, some light spice. Finish is short and the hops come through here. Not too bad. Not sure about all the organic stuff but as a beer it’s not too bad. As an ESB, I have no idea.

Dec 1, 2007 Nice carmael malt aroma of moderate strength. Cloudy ochre, no head. Tastes as it smells and only slightly bitter. Weak copper finish.Not a great beer, but a very tolerable ESB for those of who aren’t fond of the style.

Nov 29, 2007 Wow is this bad! Aroma was nothing...maybe a hint of malt. Pour was a flat dark amber with no head. Taste was sweet...SWEET with a hint of hops in the aftertaste. Band aid throughout. This is crap.
