22 oz bottle poured with high hopes and expectations for little reason. When did these guys sneak there way to the Seattle area? Had a couple around here from them, but at obscure locations. Cloudy orange copper pour with a thick, lasting foam head. Earthy aroma. Barely sweet caramel flavor. This slowly grew on me. Had a rough time with it at first, but after a long while of sipping on it, it became enjoyable.

Poured from 650mL bottle [batch #2]. Hazy light brown with off-white head. Toffee malt and light resinous hops. As others have mentioned, not really an esb style, but a good beer nonetheless.

Hazy amber, bubbly head, aroma is a bit earthy, touch of fruity sweet, then some biscuity character. Ok, but the hops really lack freshness.

Hazy amber color, with small head. Bread and malt syrup aroma. Lean mouthfeel, the malt flavor is a bit chewy, moderately sweet, with strong bitterness, some hop resins.
Not a Bitter. Good English Pale Ale.

650 ml bottle. Pours an orange/amber with light to moderate head. Aromas of toffee, pine, and rubber. Flavors tropical fruit, light pine, and toasted malts. More of an American IPA than ESB, Rather light but easy to drink.
