Jan 20, 2005 The Plain Kitchen, Göteborg. Light flowery hops, mild ozone, some oak, apple skins. Dark amber red, mild haze before dregs, with almost no head. Medim watery body with mild carbonation. Starts with mild sweetness, light apple flavor, and light acidity. Fruity hops with mild bittering at the finish. After is tart sweet acidic, with mild bittering. Nice ale. Adding dregs gives extra bitter, acidic tang.

Dec 20, 2004 I don’t know who this "Pope" guy is, my bottle having no references to him... but this was a fine ESB. Pouring a hazy copper tone with a froathy, soapy off-white head, this has a floral and herbal hop aroma along with some orange fruitiness. The taste is a lightly sweet caramel, citric fruit, and earthy herbal hops. A very well balanced brew, this has a midly bitter finish.

Dec 3, 2004 Copper color with a large light beige head. Sweet pipe tobacco aromas with raisins and hazelnuts. Mild fruit (raspberry and mild mango) with dry caramel flavors. Finish is mildly earthy and mild hops stick in the linger. I enjoy this from a more traditional ale point of view.

Nov 22, 2004 Lots and lots of beige foamy head. I mean a whole lot. Murky orange body. The aroma is quite hoppy, soem light citrus along with a raisiny maltiness. It has a certain dusty aroma I usually associate with lambics, It is in no way overpowering or unpleasant just a bit unusual given the style. Interesting spicy flavor that I was not expecting. The fruity hops are in there also, but not much else. Dry bitter palate and finsih. The overcarbonation lends in the overly bitter mouthfeel I think. I think my bottle is slightly off, though not outright bad. Will have to try this one again.
