Aug 13, 2009 Ehh. Aroma is grainy, nothing of note. Flavor is very similar. This beer is just kind of there.

Jul 23, 2009 Location: 12 oz bottle from Total Wine - Richmond, 7/23/09
Aroma: Caramel malts, light hop nose, bit of fruit (cherry?), an almost medicinal quality
Appearance: Hazy amber-orange color, decent off-white head, some light lacing
Flavor: Similar to the nose, but kind of weak/light, some malts, some hops, not a lot there
Palate: Decent mouthfeel, long finish, decent amount of body
Overall Impression:
It’s an alright ESB, decent flavor, easy to drink, not bad, but a bit dull.

Jul 20, 2009 Red orange; nice carbonation and hazy, fluffy head. Doesn’t look bad. Pleasant English ale style aroma; bready hop with a mild, estery hop. Some unusual musty funk (possibly due to age?). The taste is a mild, subdued hop, even more bready malt; surprising alcohol at the end. Twinge of spicy Belgian-style malt, but only lasts for a moment. Musty aftertaste. Creamy, substantial feel, almost in the vein of Guinness. This baby is English ale all the way, with a weird funk at the end.

Jul 14, 2009 Pours a dark amber. Somehwhat paradoxically, I find the flavor of this organic beer a bit artificial. Kind of sweet, not very well-balanced. I don’t know. Perhaps I’m not appreciating the flavor this beer offers but it just does nothing for me.

Jun 30, 2009 This was served a little warm just do to the weather. Mild bitterness, not unpleasent with a general woody body. Easy to drink and I can see a six pack on a hot day.

Jun 27, 2009 Bottle from Organic Brewers Fest... Poured amberish-red with an off-white head. Candy and malts on the nose. Fizzy palate. Very sweet and not much of a hop presence. Jolly Rancher-like candy flavors and buttery/toffee malts. Very light and easy to drink.
