Mill Street ESB

Brewed by Mill St. Brewery
Style: Premium Bitter/ESB
Toronto, Canada

Amber-red colour. Some caramel nose. Some breadcrust malts and herbal hops on the palate. Earthy, caramelly taste. Well-balanced with a slight herbal hop note. Earthy finish. Nice bitter.

Foamy off-white head, on dark yellow body. Malty aroma, where are the hops?On-tap at the brewery in its first week. Bitter but medium mouhfeel. Lagerish taste,

Draught. At Mill Street Brewpub. *Someone*s on crack - this is awesome. Poured a hazy copper-orange with a solid, lasting creamy beige head. Soft lightly floral hop aroma, light barley malt, very simple but good. The taste follows right on, floral, fresh grain taste, the most appealing grain/barley aftertaste I’ve encountered - balanced, elegant - a true session ESB. Appropriately light body, mildly astringent - a true session beer, I’m looking forward to being able to purchase growlers of this one.

On tap @ Volo, Toronto
Pint of clear amber with typical to bitter ales bright white top.
Fresh grainy nose with good dose of refreshing hops.
I liked this ale . Good , clean work . Malt base developed well, hoppy presence to no much (it’s not IPA), but felt all right. It’s nothing you will go crazy for but gotta say that it was brewed with out any major faults. Clean, solid brew. Light enough to be perfect choice as local session beer. Feel like having good chat with friends on Friday eve, this might be the beer to choose for.

Draught at the brewpub. Lightly hazy amber brown with not much head. A glass transfer to share later earnes a fairly big one. Muted aroma of flat toasty caramel malt. Light bitterness and a light hint of toasty malt in the flavour that fosters a sharp bite in the caramel malt. Hops add little beyond the bitterness. Average palate. Will try this again sometime as this was clearly not as good as the other ratings here.

Draught at the Mill Street Brewpub. Pours a hazy amber-orange with an average size lasting foamy white head. Nice hoppy aroma with some malt and fruit -- well balanced. Flavour’s sweeter then expected with equal amounts of sweet malt and hops and a light bitter finish. Medium bodied. Pretty good, this is a nice version of the style.

On tap at the brewpub. Pours amber with a slightly off-white head. Has a caramel toffee aroma with a slight bit of acetone. Flavor is nice: sweet maltiness and a tart citrus-like finish of bitterness.

Fruity hops nose, some malt, deep copper, pours a fair sized toffee head. Flavour has pitfruit, hops and lots of malt. Really well balanced, light bodied, easy drinking. Lovely session ale. Well done again Michael Duggan! Can’t wait to try this on Cask.
