Dec 18, 2008 Clear coppery in appearance. Interesting creamy orange in flavor. It reminds me of a Orange Push-Up but not as sweet. Finishes on the palate with slight hoppy bitterness. Average yeasty malty aroma. Not too bad but nothing outstanding other than the curious orange and cream flavor which I have never tasted in a beer.

Dec 17, 2008 Bottle. Pours a light clear amber with a 3 finger creamy white head that leaves delicate lacing. Nose is malt and earthy hops. Taste matches the aroma for the most part. Medium mouth feel. Decent seasonal.

Dec 15, 2008 Bottle from Sun Devil. This is one strange ESB, but I am finding a lot of those lately. I was ready to call this a Pink Ale, because it is not a pale and falls just shy of a red in terms of intensity. Hops are not as present as promised, with smooth malt balancing them out. Shy fruit.

Dec 12, 2008 Slightly hazy copper color pour with a frothy white head that lasts a while. Aroma of roasted malt and spicy hops. Nice malty flavor with a touch of caramel and citrus and a good bite on the finish. Pretty good.

Dec 9, 2008 Poured amber with a nice sized tan head. Hoppy aroma. Taste of grapefruit hoppiness, but not too bitter. Some caramel and a touch of rye. Nice balance. A bit different for a winter ale, but I liked it. Will try again.
