Pony Bar, NY tap ($5): Pours a cloudy yellow with a small white head. Citrus, yeast, funk, and earth are the main ingredients in the aroma. Beer is very light. Citrus and Earth are the main flavours. This is easy to drink and is also quite refreshing, yet nothing here is particularly outstanding.

Bar Great Harry, NY tap ($6): Pours an orange colour with a small head. Aroma is lemon and wheat. Taste is mostly lemony, with a heavy mineral feel throughout. ’Tis rather salty, but not in a bad way. Really light, but full-flavoured. Does have a nice aftertaste.

Location: Draft at Mission Dolores, 9/8/12
Aroma: This one has a nose of caramel, bread, nuts, and toffee
Appearance: It pours a clear dark orange color, coating white head/lace
Flavor: The taste of this one is medium sweet, mostly malt, and has a light spice hop
Palate: The body is light-medium, it has a tingly feel, and a mildly dry finish to it
Overall Impression: This one was a solid amd drinkable ESB with a enough of a hop backing to provide some balance to this malt-heavy beer.

On cask at the stags head. Pours cloudy plum brown with thin head. Aromas of dark fruit and yeast. Tastes of plums, yeast, tobacco, wood, earth, and raisin. Seemed decent but I’d like to try again not on cask as the added carbonation may lift this up
