Can: Poured a clear copper color ale with a large slightly off-white foamy head with good carbonation. Aroma of dry caramelized malt notes with some light grainy notes. Taste is also a mix of dry caramelized malt with some grainy notes and a smooth finish. Body is about average for style with good carbonation. Well brewed ESB with a great drinkability factor.

Originally rated October 2020 and drinking my last can from the last batch they had. Clean amber colour with a big frothy off-white, light-beige head, good retention and leaving creamy lacing traces. Cereal grain malt nose with light caramel notes and hops. Mild caramel malt base with good hops cutting the sweetness. A fairly dry mouthfeel in the finish. Quite a well-balanced malty caramel, grainy brew with some nice light spicy hops in the end.
