Jun 13, 2008 Even though it is not to style I like the hoppiness in this beer. Pours amber with a medium head. Malty aroma. Taste is initially malty but then the hops come through.

Jun 12, 2008 Had this one bottled in a mix pack from World Market in St. Charles, Illinois, thanks Mom and Dad! Deep reddish-brown pour with a frothy tan head, nutty nose, balanced flavor. This is a highly quaffable brew.

Jun 3, 2008 Slightly more hoppy than I would expect from the style, althou8gh the serving temperature was colder than it should be. Malt sweetness is nice..

Jun 2, 2008 (from notes) ESB from Lefthand. Medium amber color, think off white head. Smooth toasted malts, crisp floral hop notes. A tad hoppier than usual for an ESB, but nothing IPA-ish. Quality session brew.

Jun 2, 2008 This beer poured an amber body with a distinct caramel malts aroma. Very little head and very little lacing. smooth, light body with a soft touch of hops.

May 31, 2008 There’s nothing offensive about this beer, so they must have decent quality control at the brewery. BUT, it’s bland as heck, even after letting it "warm up." There’s nothing that stands out about it at all. It’s certainly a beer I could drink all day, which is appropriate for the style, but c’mon... If it was like $6 for a six pack it would be a go-to "dumb" beer, but it’s not worth the $8.99 I paid. It tries to be like Bass (which would be a much better choice), but ends up tasting like a high-quality Miller Lite.

May 31, 2008 A very smooth drink with sweet malt and a hint of honey. Not too hoppy, and a very clean finish.

May 31, 2008 Updated: Nov 19, 2009Hazy amber with fair, creamy beige head / Nose of malt, citrus, and brown sugar / Light to medium body, a touch of sweetness, with substantial malts and dry hops imparting some heft and creaminess to the body and dry finish / Flavors of sour malt, grapefruit, brown sugar, toast, and dry hops / Very nice. A session beer if there ever was one.
