Jul 12, 2002 (on hand-pump).
great ESB.
copper color with a soft head. floral hoppy nose. taste is initially malty then the sharp pungent hops com through, ends with a bitter dry finish.
great smooth palate, a superlative job of cask-conditioning.

Apr 7, 2003 Updated: Jul 18, 2007Dark amber, staying head. Lightly hopped aroma. Neat bitterness in a malty beer with resounding hop character. Full-bodied. Quality!

May 3, 2003 This is a quality ESB - excellently balanced out between hops and maltiness - much like Hop Devil, but with less malt presence - probably one of the best American made ESBs I've had.

Apr 17, 2004 Tap at the brewpub. Clear red orange with a whitish head. Hoppy nose with fruity yeast notes. Peachy and apricot notes. Flavor has a nice malty hop balance, and good noble hop characteristics. Very nice and drinkable.

May 4, 2004 Updated: May 7, 2004Tap @ Victory (Cask Conditioned) Rather dark, cloudy, amber/copper with nice straw head. Nose is spicey, slightly sweet caramel malts with moderate hops. Spicey, fresh, bright, clean, silky smooth flavor balanced well with fresh hops. Was disappointed at first by a somewhat light bodied/thin mouthfeel, but the flavors were excellent and lingered long into a very surprising almost endless, seamless finish. Pleasantly dry and bitter. I could have drank this till I fell under the table. My favorite of the brews I tried that day.

Nov 26, 2008 tap from the Downingtown pub. Very much like the Uncle Teddys but for some reason much colder and not as much of a creamy head. Very good Bitter! Very good session beer indeed. This may be the best "American" Bitter I have had yet. I’m very partail to the English bitters and this is very close and very good in it’s own way. A bit of fruit and hops comes through in a subtle way. Looks great and goes down great!
