| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 1/5 | 7/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Nov 21, 2009 THOUGHTS: Not at all what I was expecting. It really didn’t seem at all like an ESB. More like a British pale ale, but just slightly British at that. Not an awful beer, but it really missed the mark.
TECHNICAL: Bottle. Poured a slightly hazy, light gold with barely any head that left barely fair lacing. The aroma was light bread, caramel and biscuit; moderate to heavy pine, grapefruit and lemon hops; slight honey; and apricot. The initial flavor was sweet, slightly bitter and a little acidic; while the finish was acidic and bitter with a fairly long duration. It was nice but a little watery. There was light caramel malt, light bread and biscuit, lemony, piney hops, some yeast, metallic hops and perfumy hops. The light to medium body leaned more to the light side and was a little syrupy and then fairly dry with fizzy carbonation and a metallic and lightly dry finish. thewolf (5796), Kolding, Denmark

Pours clear, dark golden with a fine, creamy, white head. Lovely hoppy aroma. Lots of grapefruit, light piney, peach and oranges. Medium carbonation, finde creamy mouthfeel. Light dryness. Flavour starts with a lots of fat maltiness, rather sweet, some caramel. Then a lots of grapefruity, resiny hops. Light oranges and lots of dryness in the rather long finish. Nice.

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Nov 14, 2009 BOTTLE: clear light gold color, very mild hop nose. Taste is hop, citrus, a little malt that adds a bit of body as well. Easy drinking, but keeps some depth of flavor. I’m a fan. beerandIT (189), Richmond, Virginia, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Nov 12, 2009 From a bottle on 11/01/09, pours a beautiful gold color. No head that sticks around at all on the pour. In the aroma it is as if you get a nice smell of some fresh hops along with almost a smell of fall in a way. On the palate you get hops, very balanced hops from the front through the finish. Leaves the palate but who cares it goes down so damn easy. Great beer to just throw back if you are in that type of mood.
