It is now getting distributed around the continent with some popularity. It was just in Gre’s Anatomy. This beer is crisp and when it is fresh/cold it can’t be beat. It gives you character. All the styles out of redhook are phenominal. ESB is a classic. ericmoss3799 (73), Warwick, Rhode Island, USA

That makes it hard to compare to other ESB’s. toad6399 (3), Washington, USA does not count | 4.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 10/10 | 5/5 | 18/20 | Apr 22, 2002 I recently visted the Red Hook Brewery in Woodinville, WA. That was my first taste of Red Hook ESB and I must say that I was very impressed.

I love the sweet taste at the end. toucan4can (1), USA does not count | 4.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 18/20 | Feb 12, 2003 I love the creamy dairy notes in this one. Caramel, caramel, caramel. Another good bottled stand-by. timetrvlr (8), milford, Connecticut, USA does not count | 4.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 10/10 | 5/5 | 19/20 | Jan 27, 2005 good head strong palate with just the right bitterness for me. very drinkable and has become my personal standby when i cannot find something affordable in an ale or stout. rosebud (47), Portsmouth, New Hampshire, USA
| 4.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 10/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Feb 17, 2001 This beer use to be my favorite ESB until I discovered Fuller’s ESB, I have to admit that this beer holds its own against Fuller’s. Fortunately I live just minutes from where its brewed and am able to get the freshest beer whenever possible. The beautiful bitterness and smoothness that this beer has and the aftertaste is superb. Redhook certainly puts out fine products. This and their wheat beer as far as I’m concerned really hold there own against competitors.
