Historical Community Tasting Notes

Preserved from the RateBeer community archive (circa 2000–2018)

Bottle-Clear, deep amber color w/a moderate tan/amber head. Sweet roasted aroma. Had a lot of hops for an ESB, to much for me; kind of muddled up the beer. Did have some roasted malt/sweetness but not as much as usually associated w/this style. Reminded me more of an APA, which isnt usually my favorite style. Not bad, but I doubt I would drink this
this beer poured into a glass a amber color, with no head at all, bitter hop taste, kind of like strong pale ale, it was decent. at $11 for a 6 pack i dont think ill buy this one again.
Bottle. Medium brown body. OK head. Heavy malty aroma. Sweet. Flavour is fruity at first, then very malty. Ends in a lasting bitterness. (Filipstad, 21.07.07)
