Dec 16, 2002 Zesty orange hops aroma, amber, small vanilla head. Very hoppy, citrus flavours, touch of malt, lots of zing in the bitterness. Fairly nice beer, not sure it’s a Bitter though.

Oct 8, 2002 Golden yellow with a white fluffy head. Nice sweet malt profile with citrus hop flavors rounding out the flavor. Almost orange flavored in the finish. Very clean and tasty. I wouldn’t have identified it as an ESB though.

Sep 29, 2002 Far hoppier than expected, sweetly malty at the finish in a nice way...a bit nontraditional (well, not so English, anyway). The company was great at the bar by the time this one came along, and things were just beginning!

Sep 28, 2002 ReRate: The more I drink of this award winning beer the more I like it. Copperish orange color. Well balanced aroma and flavor. Yet another great beer from this Georgia brewery.

Sep 25, 2002 It was hoppy for an ESB, more again in the American way ratehr than English. A very decent session brew but not one I would seek out.

Sep 20, 2002 Pours a bit light for an ESB and extremely clear copper color (like copper-colored glass). Some of the expected British hop aromas with some american citric hops added in. Flavor lacks the chewy malt of a good ESB and really a lot of the hop character of a typical ESB. It’s mostly a light sweet toasty malt flavor with mild pear-like fruitiness. Not the best example of the style, but I like the beer. It’s easy drinking and not bad by any stretch.
