A red copper ale with a thin lacing white head. In aroma, nice caramel malt with light grassy hops, treacle, light butterscotch, pleasant. In mouth, a nice grainy caramel, with fruity esters, light mineral notes, pleasant. On tap at brewery.

Clean golden-amber colour with hardly any carbonation, but the light-beige, frothy head is decent with average stay and mild lacing. Cereal grain and caramel malt base with some nicely blended hops. These show up beautifully in the taste, giving a Pilsner-like spicier hop flavour. The grains lightly linger, not too sweet like some of this style. Very well-brewed, great session North American ESB.
