Aroma: 6 | Appearance: 6 | Mouthfeel: 6 | Flavor: 7 | Overall: 6
Bottled: Poured a slightly hazey orange-gold. Nice foamy 1 finger head with medim retention that reduces to a thick surface capping lace. Nose of sweet malts and floral hops...not overstated, Medium carbonation. Starts tart with a sandy mouthfeel then builds to a medium body where the roasty malts balance off against slightly medicinal hopping, The finish is bready with a nice medium bittering bite to it. A well rounded english style ESB. Others have said this ale took a dive after Brick took it on from Conners...I have no way of telling that. However, as good and well rounded as I found this ale to be, there is an oddity to this ale ...it leaves me with a good impression but a nagging feeling that it still lacks a small something....possibly more floral hopping or some fruity tones from different yeast.. that could make it a great ESB...whatever. It is still one of the better ales available in bottles in Ontario and I’d never turn one down. It’s the closest I’ve tasted to a Canadian version of Anchor Liberty....but it lacks some undefinable something to kick it up into that class of ales .

Originally brewed by Conners, then bought out by Brick. This is a good bitter, nothing extravegant, but certainly a good taste and overall beer. I would say its a good beer to keep in the house for habitual bitter fans.

Bought a 12 pack of this brew. Comes in stubbies. Pours a medium-light amber colour with a decent white head. Carbonation is lively and lacing is nice and thick. The aroma is mostly malty, but has a slight flower scent to it. The taste is mildly bitter in the middle and then goes into a smooth breaded finish with hints of fruits. Drinkability on this one is great. Nothing crazy special about this bitter, but would drink it again.
