On tap @ the brewery. Pours a little hazy brownish orange appearance with a darkish brown, creamy head. Caramel, toasted nuts, pecans, dirt, burnt sugar, and toast in the aroma. Flavor is a little on the sweet side. Slightly metallic. There’s some more nuts along with cola and brown sugar in the flavor. Bitterness is a little high, as is sweetness. I didn’t particularly care for this offering.

Tap at the brewery - hazy amber - fairly typical americanized esb - bready malt, some caramel sweetness - dry hopping adds some floral and fruity characteristics - perhaps a mild mineral note - more like a hoppy amber, but an okay beer.
