Commercial Description:
Golden-hued and medium-bodied, Nestucca ESB features a floral, herbal aroma character balanced with a toffee-like toasted malt flavor. A tangerine-and-pineapple-like fruitiness merges with caramel flavors and a clean, hoppy finish to make this beer both refreshing and full of character. Dry hopped with Goldings hops for an even bigger fresh hop aroma!!

(Cask) This was a really delicious and smooth, somewhat sweet malty ESB. Has a wonderful fragrant hop aroma. Rich toasted maltiness, with some caramel sweetness and apple skin fruitiness.

On tap at the brewery. This was a nice ESB, pouring a clear copper with a smooth white head. Lots of hops give a big floral aroma. The citrus hops balance out the beer against the toasty herbal malts with a light fruitiness.

Tap at the brewpub and sampled 5/14/05 Disclaimer: This rating may be skewed, as I had just finished the 55 mile leg of the Reach the Beach charity bike ride ... and it was served in a plastic cup. D’oh
Poured red and clear with a small head. It left a decent lace, considering the plastic(?!) cup. Aroma was hoppy and woody with a slight sweetness going on. Most likely caramel. Flavor was piney and grassy hops with a little bit of a sweetness there, too. It was very refreshing after a day of pedalling my ass off.
