| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | May 26, 2006 12 oz bottle. Pours a clear light amber body under a one finger fizzy beige head. A few lazy streams of bubbles rising from the bottom of the glass. Aroma is very light with a definate husky/grainy component. A little diacetyl as well. Flavor is pretty thin with some light crystal malt, minimal hop bitterness, and a little of that diacetyl on the finish. Mouthfeel is light bodied and thin with moderate fizzy carbonation. Overall, less than impressive, and not the best example of the style. haddon90 (1039), Alexandria, Virginia, USA

Pours a clear copper color with a thin cream colored head. Kind of sweet, malty aroma. Bitter hops, gentle. Smooth, easy drinking. A decent brew! jason (1626), Easton, Pennsylvania, USA

Nice, sweet aroma escapes the bottle.
Looks like a typical Bitter.
Flavor is alive with a good blend of hops.
A decent bitter I could drink more than once. IndiaDaleAle (35), Allentown, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | May 13, 2006 Not a huge ESB fan, but this one did me well. It had a nice amber golden pour with a little head. The aroma was very mild and the taste was in the same boat. My favorite ESB so far, due to its mildness. apoptosis (1316), Long Island, New York, USA
| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 9/20 | May 13, 2006 Fairly pale orange/dark golden body with a dainty white head. Not much aroma at all, just slight essence of generic malts with no hops at all. The flavor is hard for me to take: very watery, yet jolting bitterness. Hardly a well-balanced beer at all. Some crispness in the finish, but also an unpleasant metallic taste notalush (2690), Denver, Colorado, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | May 13, 2006 Hazy copper with foamy lace - mild, dry, slightly hopped aroma - has a kind of "yeast from a pouch" homebrew taste to it - dry to start and to finish, with a strangely sweet, fruity middle - not too good. redlight (1496), Winter Park, Florida, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Apr 22, 2006 Has a mild aroma, some malt, feint hops. Pours a light brown. Has a dry flavor, slight maltiness, then dry almost metalic finish. bigrond (1055), factoryville, Pennsylvania, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Apr 16, 2006 this beer was very dry and bitter. A little to much so. I think this might have been a decent ESB but it wasn’t very easy to drink. I’ll pass next time
