375ml can into pint glass. From Beer Cartel. Slightly chilled. Pours a clear copper colour with a large white head of sudsy foam. High carbonation, tiny streams of bubbles. Patchy lacing. Nose is toffee, burnt caramel, maybe a touch of stewed apple. Slight zing, toffee flavour at first. Finish is herbal and tannic. Possibly too bitter for an ESB but nice enough.

(Can) Pours clear deep amber brown with small off-white head. Nice aroma, mainly toffee malt with notes of vanilla and hints of tea. Medium body with bright carbonation. Toffee malt is the dominant flavour with some pleasant bitterness developing in the end. There’s an interesting mix of other flavours including herbs, tea and vanilla, and hints of stewed apples. Very pleasant
