"What a brutal pour I got 4” of beer and 8” of foam and its disappearing so very slowly hurry up dam it I want to drink you. The body appears dark honey brown and crystal clear. Aroma is not winning me over mild sweet wood some faint chemical smell and a touch of citrusy hops. Biscuty malts, mildly bitter hops, dried out grass and wood make up the light and dry flavor. Banana comes out in the flavor but only on the last few sips when the beer was room temp. Mouth feel was thinner then I would have liked it to be. Ok to drink but forgettable. My marks seem to low."

Aroma is pleasant but not too prevalant. There is a great read hue to the brownness. Flavour is a bit malty but pretty nice and very smooth. The taste drops off nicely for a bit and then very sharply and slighty bitter with malts and hops. Pretty nice, but I’m not such a fan of ESBs.

Looks great in the glass, deep amber colour and a thin head. Aroma of yeast and a light hoppyness. Flavour is great, Bitter, but not over powering. Very malty with an almost chocolate finish. Fantastic mouth feel, light and creamy, with perfect carbonation, and great lacing. Very complex. This is a great beer!!!

Pours an amber colour with a big tan coloured head. Aroma is sweet and light. Caramel, dandelion, spices, and citrus. Flavor is as refined as a good businessman from London. Caramel and brown sugar take the start with soft fruits and dandelion coming in behind it, a nice hint of citrus goes the whole way through and a spicy finish quenches and makes you want more. Soft effervecent mouthfeel. Excellent bitter!

Deep amber with a large head. Fruity, spicy, light yeast inthe aroma. Similar flavor with bright fruits and finishing with a spicy, yeast bite. High carbonation level. Very tasty brew and a nice thirst quencher.
