Lakefront Organic ESB

Reddish orange in color and has a teafroth head. Barely any beer aroma, pretty clean on the olfactory. Very smooth initial flavor, not quite as bitter as I expected. Friendly and easy to get along with. As the session continues, a slight bitterness begins to build on the palate. Low medium carbonation. Not bad for an ESB, expected it to be more bitter and I’m glad it is not. Finish is not offensive and very gentlemanlike in it’s manners.

Yet another Lakefront brew courtesy of the PfoxyJohn. Translucent copper pour with a cream colored head leaving nice lacing throughout. Light sweet malty aroma with a nice hops offset both in the nose and palate, lightly nutty and bready, then a decent hops bitter linger, then a hint of something metallic as it warms but overall a very good organic beer. Thank you John.

Pours clear coppr-orange with a modeate white head. Sweet malts dominate the nose and almost stage a coup over flavor - with only the fainest bit of hops present. Oddly slick to the pallette - think WD-40 - but still not an entirely hateful beer.

another miss for us. similar generic (kit?) malt profile to the Stein and even the pilsner mixed with some off/funky hop bitterness. aroma better than the flavor.

An amber colored ale on pour. Big frothy beige jead. Moderate retention with clouds of lacing left behind. There is a scent of sweet caramel buried in a light scenting of pine and citrus hops. Big carbonation character. Body is light, but there is a smoothness. Nice tasting of citrus, backed up by the pine and sweet caramel. Really a decent quaff.

Comes out of the bottle a beautiful clear copper, almost mahogany, with a thick sandy off-white head that dissipates fairly quickly. Aroma is malty with an undertone of cinnamon and a sharp hint of fruit. Flavor is on the thin side, strongly but not fiercely bitter. Texture is smooth and just a bit watery, not very tingly. Not the best I have had, but acceptable.

I really hope my bottle was old...I smell sour grapes.. There was a nice head for a bit. Color was cloudy light red. Mouth feel sucked.it was like drinking apple pucker. Flavor was a jolly rancher gone bad... I love ESB even more so I get excited when it says organic... This was awful

Kind of disappointing after enjoying Lakefront's pale ale so much. Pours light amber with medium off-white head. Aroma is malty and yeasty; couldn't detect much hops. Flavor is malty with just a bit of hop bitterness. Would have liked this better if there were more hops.

The beer pours a dark amber. The malt is a little bready and lightly sweet, but the hops aren’t as prevalent as some. This, in the ends, is a very drinkable beer.
