Notes from April 2009 Bottle from New Beer. Washed out BB date on the neck reads 3/??/09. Purchased at the end of January. Poured into my DFH rounded pint glass. Two inches of caramelized milk-colored head over a clear & deep copper body. Smell is stuffy with crackermeal, lightly bittergreen hops, caramel, stale pepper, & metal shavings. Taste is sweet upfront with bready malt & grapefruit rind. Toasty malt fills the middle with some grape skins & some light brown sugar. Body is thin & sharp, but not overly carbonated. Finish is resiny with pine & dusty bread. Aside from the less then clean finish, & the slightly off smell, I think this is a really good ESB. Just enough hop presence, & a good backing of malt, without adding unnecessary body.

Notes from March 2011 Half-sized growler from New Beer. Ommegang anniversary glassware. All the corned beef is long gone. Go easy on the cabbage please. Pours with barely a tickle of off-white head. A dazed-looking orange amber. Smell is big on ethanol, leather, caramel, & a faint mishmash of dark fruit. This one really needed to warm up before I got anything significant. Taste is bittersweet, twiggy, & tannic. Sweetened black tea, leather, bushy greens, & a dry biscuit grain backend. Not all that bitter actually. Bit oxidized. Tastes a tad watered down, but easier to pronounce. Alcohol isn't as much a factor as I thought it would be. Carbonation could definitely use some work, but that's on the draft system, not Stoudt's. At least it's not syrupy. Decent mellow flavor. Fill wasn't too bad(I believe it was somewhere around $8). Easier to reach for then some of the overly sweet things you see in the English BW category on BA.

12 ounce bottle. Number one with a bullet. Amber gold pour. Small frothy beige head. Yeasty, vinous malt aroma. Tangy malt flavor. Notes of wine and oak. Some sour citrus and apricot. There is an element of booziness, though there is no indication of the ABV on the bottle. Average for the style. Not in the same league as the great Belgian triples.

Sampled on draft this beer poured a hazy amber color with a large foamy white head that left a bit of lacing. The aroma was tart with citrus and stone fruit. The flavor was sour with peach, a faint lactic note and citrus. Long citric finish. Light body.
