Mar 26, 2008 Beautiful deep amber with good head of froth. Easy fruitiness and light malt intermingle in the bouquet. Fruity flavor, with a dank sock and fruit punch quality.

Mar 8, 2008 Pint at the Thirsty Bear in San Francisco, 19th Feb 2008. Dark amber/maroon colour with a very obstinate head and lots of lacing. Fruity aroma and a good flavour of toffee and slightly roasted malt, helped by a smooth, creamy mouthfeel. An enjoyable ESB.

Jan 18, 2008 From June 2007 tasting notes, sampled at Thirsty Bear. Beautiful clear bronze with a creamy off-white head - very nice. Caramel, light herbal, earthy hops. Flavor of toasted malt/caramel, earthy Brit hops, bread - moderately sweet, medium bitterness. Medium bodied with soft carbonation. Leaves a beautiful thick cloud-like lacework on the glass. A solid drinkin’ beer.

Jan 2, 2008 Wife’s pint at the brewpub. Orange body and creamy white head. Dry, nutty aroma. Citric bitterness clings to a malty backbone, and is pleasingly refreshing, although a little forward at times. Overall a solid ESB.
