Jun 10, 2005 I am a big ESB fan, but I was not thrilled with this one, though I have also been a Weyerbacher fan as well. This is too hoppy and makes me think much more of an IPA than as ESB.

Jun 8, 2005 12 oz bottle obtained in a trade with Firemoose15.. Thanks Mel! Pours amber and pretty clear with a nice frothy white head that laces the glass. Aroma is of sharp hops and caramel malts. Flavor is quite malty and sweet, notes of caramel and nuts but finishes with a nice sharp bitter hop finish. On the palate this is quite crisp and clean and has a nice bitter bite and even sourness to it on the finish. This is a pretty good ESB.

May 23, 2005 Decent ESB. A nice hoppiness to it, nothing great. Weyerbacher has a great variety of awesome beers, so I will have to pass on this again and go for some of their other stuff.

May 8, 2005 Updated: Aug 26, 2007Weyerbacher has done some nice beers. ESBs are a bit hit or miss for me though. This was my first time trying this one. Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a caramel color with a small white head. The aroma is sweet and nutty. The flavor is sour nut with a light body and a dry finish.

May 5, 2005 Another fresh out the bottle a toasted malt sensation reaches your nose. Looking through the glass a reddish dark amber swirls. A few sips later I found it to be tasty and lightly bitter. A full body yet lively enough to finish clean.

Mar 31, 2005 Frothy off-white head atop a deep amber body. Slight silage notes in a dry malty aroma. There is some orange in there adding to the silage aspect as well. Light stale and dry chocolate and caramel taste that is on top of a mostly bready component, and finishes with some light hops. Its mildly complex but uninteresting.

Mar 8, 2005 Clear bright copper color with a modest head of beige bubbles. Caramel aromas, similar to the start of making caramel with the butter and brown sugar. A light floral nose as well. Floor malt flavors dominate with some earthiness, dry toffee, and a touch of peat. Alcohol seems to be quite noticeable. Quite a lively palate. Long malt and mild licorice linger. I like the maltiness, seems a bit closer to an Irish ale.
