This is my personal favorite beer as a home brewer. I have brewed more batches of this beer than any other. I kept it on tap at my house continually. This is also my most medal winning beer of all time. I even entered it in the Samuel Adams TM Holiday Homebrew Competition back in about 2005 and it took first place in the category and the beer advanced to the final three. But, it did not get best of show. I was sad at the time, but happy as hell now, because if it had won, it would be Jim Cook's beer! This beer is an ESB, which was the premium beer of the Working Man (Working Stiff) who frequented the pubs of London after a hard day's work back in the mid 1800's. It may be a 160 years later, but this beer is still the

Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 8 | Mouthfeel: 8 | Flavor: 8 | Overall: 8
Tannish with a hazy orange tint body, had plenty of rising bubbles, and had a nice cap that left plenty of sticky lacing.Aroma is somewhat malty with a good bit of bitterness, a surprising amount of hop aroma for the style. The flavor follows right along, being fairly malt forward, but with a a noticeable hop presence. medium body with a crisp but bitter finish, and a little lingering dry maltiness. Overall its not true to the style but a nice, tasty, and BIG ESB nonetheless.
