May 14, 2009 Handdrawn at Cricketeer Arms. Really nice. Not nearly as bitter tasting as I thought it would be. Nice sweet toffee smell. Pretty sweet taste. I could drink this all day.

Mar 16, 2009 500ml bottle. Clear dark amber with a light beige head. Looks to be well carbonated. Nice malty nose, caramel, toffee, earth and a bit of fruitiness - pretty complex. Malty with some sweet fruitiness, the earthiness from the nose is there but takes a back seat. Excellent sheet lace. The earthy bitter comes on for the lingering finish. This is a pretty solid brew!

Jan 31, 2009 Draft at IBG (Lutz, FL). Pours a muddy brown color with a beige head. Nice lacing along the glass. Aroma is fairly malty with caramel and toffee notes. The sweet flavor is a mellow blend of malts and dried fruits. Very creamy mouthfeel. Slight bitterness in the finish, but not as bitter as you might expect from an ESB.

Jan 19, 2009 Tap @ OTH.
Pours hazy brown with beige head.
Aroma is grainy with good notes of dark fruits and a fairly present malty nose.
Taste of sugary malts, with dark fruits, hops.
Is a lot smoother and sweeter than most ESB’s.

Jan 3, 2009 On tap at Stubbies in Gainesville, FL. Pours a hazy, muddy brown with little carbonation and a small, thin white head. Aroma is apple cider, red delicious apples, Worcestershire sauce, caramel, and toffee. Taste is apple cider with caramel malt, toffee, brown sugar. Overall flat, a little bland, and almost sour. But probably the best ESB I have tried.

Dec 19, 2008 Ginger, light hops and toffee like malt aromas. Color is yellowish brown with a foamy bubbly tan head. Flavor is roasted brown malt and caramel with some black bread, light dried fruits, and berries. Palate is mild and bubbly. Duration is fairly long and bitter. Good.

Nov 18, 2008 Updated: Nov 28, 2008Draft at Redlight. Wow, my first review was for a totally different beer. Must have been drinking too much that night. This pours a cloudy brown with a sticky white head. The flavors of brown sugar, figs and toffee are abundant, especially the toffee. Very good.
