| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Aug 14, 2007 500ml bottle. Clear reddish copper with a big beige head that lasts the duration, descending rockily. Grass, light peat and caramel nose, a but of nuttiness. Light bodied, but the flavors fill in the blanks - earthy malt, lightly toasty caramel, mild nuts. Some floral hop towards the end, extending into the mildly bitter finish. Just a tiny bit of metal detracts from what is otherwise a very good brew! thegreenrooster (1844), St.louis, Missouri, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Aug 11, 2007 Pour is a very nice looking red with a big pillowy tan head. Aroma is decent with lots of smoky malts and a nice citrus hop. Flavor is a little weaker than the aroma. Some carmel malts and it has a nice dry dusty finish. Low alcohol makes this one a easy drinker. malrubius (1004), Valley Stream, New York, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Aug 9, 2007 500 ml glass in pint glass. Pours deep garnet red with light amber head and some lace. Surprisingly strong aroma of caramel, raisin bread, apple and peat smokiness (?). Flavors of caramel, medium tobacco bitternes, and mild fruitiness with slight bitter bite and aftertaste. Medium body, low carbonation. Pretty darn good. Very fresh, too, which helps in this case. robforbes (1099), Bremerton, Washington, USA

| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Jul 25, 2007 This here is a solid and fine ESB. Malt forward aroma, caramel, slightly buttery, but it works like buttered biscuits. Hints of herbal and grassy hops. Flavor very balanced, and earthy, with a soft smooth carbonation. This is just a great drinkable beer. Appealing reddish tint with a large foaming khaki head. beerinmarch (2829), Washington, USA
