"Was up in Roswell, GA today and figured I would drop in Roswell Package since it was such a large building and I was not dissappointed. Aroma on this ESB is very malty sweet with some sourness and earthy figs and ripened raisins with maybe some very faint woody overtone and some English hops. Appearance is a deep, amber-red in color when held to the light with a massive head on top that is light-tan and well-carbonated and is creamy and leaves frothy lacing on the glass. Mouthfeel seems to be complex enough with decent balance with a palate that is wet-like and smooth. Flavor is malty sweet with some raisins and prunes with an aftertaste that is clean and a bit smokey to burnt in some respect with a finish that is medium-bodied and decently tasty. Overall, not a bad ESB here for sure and an interesting take on the style by Atlantic Brewing; decent stuff here. I will add this beer seems way too carbonated leading me to believe it may be a bit past its prime in freshness... "

"An amber apperance. A caramel and raisin aroma. The taste is slighty bitter with a malty backbone. The flavor consisted of caramel, some citrus fruits, and raisins. Standard issue ESB but aright.

"This ESB/Bitter pours a light brown color from a 22oz bottle. Small sized white foamy head. Aroma is malty and caramel, slightly earthy. A medium bodied ESB/Bitter. Malts are caramel and sweet. Hops are earthy and floral. Good balance. Lively carbonation. Nice beer, kind of standard bitter but very decent. Mouthfeel is full. Finish is clean and smooth. Aftertaste is slightly bitter. "

"Dark pour, small head and lacing. This beer is ungood. Burnt aroma and burnt flavor. One in our group reminisced of the old days of uncoated aspirin, when it gets caught in your throat and comes back up...that is the flavor of this beer. Ungood."
