Historical Community Tasting Notes

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

Pretty good beer. Darker amber appearance, with a good size white head. Good hoppy aroma. Flavor stands out very well, although not too much like an ESB. A slight yeasty flavor. Good.
Light clear amber. Watery, sweet, sugary, some faint hint of hops at the finish. This needs more than the hard water to bring it up to par with other ESBs!!!
Decent little ale, full head nice color. Tasted slightly hoppy and a little malty, enjoyable.
