Reid (988), Salem, Oregon, USA Jun 16, 2008 Golden beer with a small white head.
Peppery, spicy hop aromas, some malts.
Falvour is mostly thick sweet malts , backed by peppery hoppiness, curious long lasting mild bitter ness.
Nice on the palate, quite smooth, almost silky.
Overall a nice Golden ale...i dont think this can be considered an "ESB".
MakeItDrinkIt (60), Portland, Oregon, USA Aug 4, 2008 Golden hue with a thin white head. The aroma is somewhat fruity - like peaches or nectarines, but quite light. Flavor is initially lightly fruity, more like apricots, than dries out quite nicely. This is a superb (golden ale) ESB - a bit different but quite good. stchloe (96), Portland, Oregon, USA Aug 4, 2008 Golden amber color, amber like straw citric taste. Smooth with a hint of hops.
