Had this beer on 6/23/2000. Aroma is a sweet malt scent. Color is a brownish orange with light carbonation and head. Taste roasted and bitter. Starting with a light/medium body it goes down crisp. Finish is a mild malt flavor with an odd hop flavor and bitterness. Overall I think it fits it’s category well but isn’t a beer I would not go out of my way to drink.

strong malty nose, maybe a little stale (my bottle might have been old...) deep copper color, good flavor of dark malts and hops. a little thin, and the finish is astringent and sour. not bad, but not great either.

A nice malty nose with some hop character. Well rounded flavor with a smooth finish.

That's a damn good ESB. Hints of chocolate malts, really good flavor here.

Faint aroma, some spicy, herbal British hop, orange citrus and lightly sweet maltiness. Dark amber color, some sedimentation, with a fading head. Flavor profile was a little plain, definite Goldings hop flavors and a touch of toasty, caramel malt sweetness. Finish sees a slight amount of hop bitterness, some tea leaf flavors. I didn't find this one very inspiring.

Decent bitter with a nice head. Good copper color. Nice bitters in the nose and in the taste. Finishes dryly. Nice finish.

Cloudy brown, tan head. Good malt nose and foretaste. Long medium hop finish. No balance. Good lace

pours a deep copper color with lots of floaties. aroma is quite fruity and malty..have to say there is some malt presence in the flavor, but for the style, i have to say i’m disappointed.
