| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jan 19, 2007 Poured to a hazy orange-red, with mdium off-white head that lasted for a while and left okay lacing. Initial aroma was hoppy citrus (grapefruit) and floral. However, this dissipated and becme muted as the beer warmed. Flavor was likewise the hoppy floral, with a nice bitter palate, true to form. The dry, bitter finish was the best part of this beer for me. GG (1678), NorCal, California, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Jan 12, 2007 Well, if you could give extra poits for being average, then this would rank really high. An aroma of sweet malts, subtle hops, and caramel. Flavors were malts, small hops with a slight carbonation being present. Not bad. Ungstrup (15430), Frederiksberg, Denmark
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Jan 11, 2007 A hazy amber beer with a lazing beige head. The aroma is very sweet with light notes of caramel and spices. The flavor is sweet with notes of toffee and caramel, leading to a dry end with notes of nuts. nhorween (640), Chicago, Illinois, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Jan 1, 2007 Draft. Ruby red with a white head. Hoppy aroma, metallic, sweet malt. Similar palate, not hugely complex. Simple and clean. Drinkable. Not bad, good bitter notes. jason (1627), Easton, Pennsylvania, USA
| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Dec 31, 2006 Updated: Mar 17, 2008Draft. Aroma is hoppy, almost smelling the bitterness. Very red look with thin head. Good flavor that is hoppy and well balanced with slight carbonation. Smooth and a good palate.
Update: Cask - Had this at WhichBrew where the brewers brought down a cask of this. Really nice hoppy aroma. The flavor was so soft and seemed to melt on your tongue with the hoppiness , which was light but flavorfull, performed spirals in the mouth. So freaking good. morrdt (609), Jacksonville, Florida, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 4/5 | 10/20 | Dec 23, 2006 Bottle from Total Wine, THE place for beer in town. Pours a ruby red color with a thin head. Has a nice sweet malt flavor with a blast of hops. Nice tasting, but not the best ESB I have had. AR (437), Georgia, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Dec 12, 2006 Reddish/orange color. Hoppy, but not too strong of flavor that was dry and smooth. coldbrewky (740), Saugerties, New York, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Dec 11, 2006 A decently balanced esb. I found myself sticking with the lady at the inviational just cause there were too dam many peolpe there, and the stoudt’s taps had shorter lines. Not overly hoppy and goes down nicely with knockwurst.
Cheapdark needs to get out more...goat face?? yikes.
