Aroma of soft graham cracker with vague hop hints. Has a head dissipating fast and a light brown body. Flavour is soft barley and grain, but no complexity. Kind of weak on the mouth, a bit watery, needs more oiliness. It's okay but needs more of everything.

On tap. Pours a dark Amber with moderate head. Aroma of grain/rye, citrus, and toasted malts. Flavors of sharp rye, bitter grass and a bit of citrus. Off balance.

On tap at Steel & Oak, pours a cloudy amber orange with a medium off-white head. Aroma brings out a hybrid of an American and English ingredients ale, with piney hops, English biscuity malt, and a little toffee. Flavour is very similar, bringing out dry bready English malt, dry toffee, and piney hops. Well-balanced and flavourful for a usually boring style. Good stuff.

Cloudy light amber color with creamy head. Like a Pale Ale, not much ESB, with light yeasty aroma, some vegetables bitterness, strong bitterness, light papery malts, yeasty final.
2014-07-08, draught at St. Augustine’s, Vancouver, 6-4-7-3-13=33
Cloudy red-copper color with small head. Mild aroma of yeast and caramel. Round mouthfeel; strong caramel flavor, strong bitterness and strong yeast character; lightly dusty in the final; it’s slightly sweeter and more fruity/estery than a British ESB, but still a good beer.

Hazy amber-tan. Frothy head. Somewhat fruity hop nose, bit yeasty, lots of hearty bitterness. Fruity character, the malts are a bit husky and the beer is definitely too yeasty.
