4 | Beer | ESB, Less than $10, 12 oz

"Playful white laced head. Golden orange color, consistent throughout the brew....Great hop flavor."

"Really an excellent bitter. Strong malt flavor prevails. Nice head. Very smooth without compromising any flavor...."

"Bravo for Left Hand. This is an excellent mellow ale, perfect for drinking, but still full of character and charm."

"Hints of sweet malts with caramel, and just the slightest hop bouquet....Very refreshing flavor, light to medium body, crisp and clean, sweet maltiness with a bit of fruitiness, and a nice hop presence to finish things off...."

"Big beefy American Style ESB these guys have dished out. Close to a strong ale in my opinion, alcohol is very noticeable. Certainly one on the biggest ESB's I have ever had the pleasure to try."

Smells and looks like Honker's Ale, but once it hits the palate the differences stand out like a brewer without a beard. 25th Anniversary has an interesting citrus note that we have never experienced in an ESB before, as well as a touch of sweetness. Overall, it is much more hoppy and bitter than Honker's, as well as just about any other so called ESB that has ever hit our lips.

A great interpretation of a British ESB. This beer has a beautiful amber hue and looks plain yummy in a glass! This is a very flavorful ale, the ringwood yeast does wonders for this beer!

"A crisp, hoppy, refreshing fall seasonal from Goose Island to be enjoyed during Indian Summer or the cooler beginning of Fall."

...Taste is reminicient of a mild Newcastle Brown...the sweet carmel matls are there in lesser quantity...The ale finshes with a crisp hop finish..."
