Jun 18, 2003 moderate yeasty aroma, acids, sweetness and spiciness; quite pleasant. Pours a golden brown, head is frothy and slightly tan. Not much in the front or middle for flavour; a slight sweetness. Hops and alcohol are present at the end. An enjoyable beer.

May 20, 2003 Nice gold color with off-white head. Hops aroma. Hints of orange and malt. I agree that it was better after it warmed a little.

May 7, 2003 Started on the lighter, fizzier side, but as it warmed, it gained plenty. Some caramel in the malts, backed by a proper hop balance. I got some burnt chocolate in there too - yummmmmmmm.

Mar 9, 2003 This beer sports clear gold color and a decent off-white head. It's got bold malt and hop flavors and appropriate bitterness. Good example of style.

Jan 23, 2003 Fresh hoppy aroma with some malt. Initial flavor peaks at pine needles. Perhaps they used spruce, but it's a very disconcerting off-flavor that I wasn't really expecting in an ESB. The finish is ok and the balance decent, but I expected a little more from this brewery.

Dec 21, 2002 Light golden appearance. Aroma is organically piney/citrusy. Good fresh aroma of malt and hops. Body is organically hoppy, not much else happening. There are defenitely better ESB’s.

Dec 17, 2002 Light bronze; sour apple & medicine aroma; curranty hops late - centennial maybe? Uneventful.
