Pours a hazy orange. Nose and taste is almost all citrus and peel. Overall, a pleasant beer, but seriously lacking any kind of complexity. Also, not very bitter for an ESB.

Half liter bottle (bottle conditioned!). Slightly sour citric aroma. A belgian? Less than clear amber tinged gold color with a decent white head. Medium body with fizzy carbonation - but soft carbonation. It’s a bit lactic. Earthy. Must be interesting hop, cause there’s a fair amount of bitter. The sour smooths into the finish. It’s now that the fruity ESB comes forth to balance against some roasted malt. But such a strange journey to get there. As consumption continues, the sour works out, and becomes a background thing. Wicked it is.

Bottle purchased at Spuyten Duyvil - cloudy golden pour with poorly retained head - quite citrus-like and sour, with an almost belgian-like yeasty, tart earthiness - other unidentifiable fruity esters - slighty woody finish - kind of thin, and the sourness throughout doesn’t seem to work for this beer.
