Commercial Description: The Extra Special Bitter (ESB) is a full-bodied, amber colored highly hopped British style ale. This ale is sweeter than your traditional bitter yet balanced with the right amount of five different hops. The ESB is “dry-hopped” with Centennial hops for 14 days to give an exceptional hop aroma.. “Dry-hopping” is simply adding the hops after the beer has finished fermenting. This process is what brings out the strong hop aroma characteristic of E.S.B.
E.S.B. is available in draft only.
Pours a nice hazy golden orange color. Aromas of nice citrus/grapefruit hops. Flavor starts malty and the hops kick in, nice crisp bitter finish.
