Coops ESB

Brewed by Sonoma Chicken Coop
Style: Premium Bitter/ESB
Campbell, California USA

Had this with Amanda for my last meal in California before the long drive home. Paired it with the Sirloin steak (rare of course). Nose of wheat and spice, neutral and light for the style. The brew is clover honey amber. The fully lasting stiff off-white creamy head leaves rocky lace. The front is balanced with light acidity in the middle followed by a very floral and soapy toasty bitter finish. The light to medium body is dry and lively.

Pours a gorgeous bronze/red color. Aroma is very malty with lots of carmel. Flavor is very mild and a bit sweet. Rich body. Little aftertaste. Loses points for being so mild.
