Nice orangish color, with aromas of caramel, malt, and brown sugar. Tastes and finishes crisp, malty, with brown sugar and bitterness at the end.

Tap @ Sly Fox. Poured a clear brown copper color with a creamy tan head. The aroma was sweet with notes of caramel malt and earthy hops. The flavor was malty with hops mixed through. This gave earthy and citrus notes. Dry finish but with a full mouth of hops. Long bitterness and a light to medium body.

Poured a golden brown with a nice head and nice lacing. Malty taste with sweet caramelly backbone ending with a surprisingly hoppy finish...much hoppier than other ESB’s I’ve had. It almost tasted like a hoppier than normal English Pale Ale more than an ESB. Very good and well balanced brew!

Golden-amber color with a nice head. Aroma of caramel and some light UK hops. Flavor is light on the hops, but quality malts bring this one around. Solid ESB.

on tap-pours a light tan head and copper color. Aroma is medium malt-caramel, faint bitter hops. Taste is medium malt-caramel, bitter hops. OK carbonation.
