Clear copper color with a light head. Not as bitter as i expected, not much of a fruit presence. I wasnt that impressed

Bottle. Poured a nice amber body with thin head. aroma is light fruits, carmel. Flavor is the same with a light bitterness, toffee and full bodied. A very nice American made ESB.

Bottle. Lilting citrus and lemongrass aroma, some grape, peach, and caramel with nice, premium-smelling ESB yeast. Clear orange body with a soapy beige head, smoothish mf with a medium-full body. Taste is a little sweeter than I’d like, bready caramel with a lightly crisp airy sort of feel. Dries out nicely and has a new shot of yeast in the aftertaste. Nice slightly chalky feel/note. Fruitiness is a bit unbalanced, but it’s still a nice little match to food.... Probably the best I’ve had from Shipyard, a slight nudge above the stout I had some time ago.

12oz bottle. Pours a clearish amber . 1/2" thick off-white head. Smells of malt, with hints of sweet citrus. Taste lots of malt. There’s a little woodiness to it and a fruity sweetness on the finish, peaches maybe. It’s got some body to it. Not too thick not too thin. Good carbonation. It’s an alright brew, not my favorite by a looong shot by definitely drinkable.

Pours a light copper in color. Light malt aroma and smooth malt and maple sugar flavors. Easy to drink and enjoyable.

Mild copper color, no head, sweet, hoppy aroma. Great taste that finishes smooth, a very decent ale.

Bottle... Poured amber with a thin white head. Leafy malt aroma with a subtle sweetness. Foamy palate with flavors of caramel and a nice tart bitterness. Strong malt in there with some hops to balance. The finish is malt with a metalic character.
