Earthy and bready, nice carbonation going on. I’m in by no way a super fan or an expert of ESBs, but I dig this one. Could use a bit more body. after4ever (2806), Brier, Washington, USA

Sweet toasty and biscuity aroma with hint of roasted malt. Sweetish toasty, berryish and nutty flavor with licorice with some roasty charcoal (or burnt grass) which seems to be out of place.

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Sep 21, 2009 500ml bottle, brygg 918, brought back to my hotel room from Fenaknoken. Poured a golden-amber body with a slowly fading off-white head. Display of lacework on the glass. Smell of sweet malts and fruity hops. The flavour starts with rather keen notes of honey-layered hops followed by semi-sweet malts. Rather short lived bitter aftertaste, but fresh and clean in the mouth (Oslo, 18.08.2009).

Fresh and fruity nose with some yeast. Medium body, fruit, yeast and a fairly hoppy finish. 130809 Jukkabro (3039), Tampere, Finland
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Sep 4, 2009 Coppery colored with little vanishing yellow head. Hopped and caramelly aroma with sugary and licoricy notes, some berries also here. Thin to medium bodied. Flavor is dry with caramel also, some burnt tone also here. Aftertaste dries even more with soapy and soft palate. Not basically ESB, still ok brew with some handmade touch. joergen (8627), Frederiksberg, Denmark
