Commercial Description:
Toasty red in color, this is our Extra Special Bitter. It's round, rich flavor is balanced by a subtle bitterness and a fragrant hop finish. A unique blend of nitrogen and carbon dioxide gases gives this beer a smoother, more flavorful palette and a creamy rich head without the strong bite associated with highly carbonated beers.

Deep orange, fine nitro head. Roasty, coffee-infused aroma. Harsh, too-forward caramel malt. Florally hops, creamy finish.

~Pours a clear copper with lasting off white head. ~Strong scent of caramel malts, alcohol and hops. ~malty biscuity flavor, alcohol present. Berry like flavor as it warms up. ~Creamy feel, alcohol tingle, bitter and malty finish. ~Seems fairly strong for a bitter, Enjoyable nonetheless.

Poured from tap at brewpub an amber color with medium off-white head. Nose of malt and bisquit. Flavor was slightly bisquity and a touch of caramel with an odd light peachy floral hoppiness. Palate was light almost watery throughout. Easy to drink but did not get my interest.

Wife’s pint at the brewpub. Orange body and creamy white head. Dry, nutty aroma. Citric bitterness clings to a malty backbone, and is pleasingly refreshing, although a little forward at times. Overall a solid ESB.

This beer is amber in color. The smell is of malt predominately. The taste is more malty than hoppy. Has an odd, not so pleasant aftertaste.
