Gone Fishing Extra Special Bitter is very traditonal in style, even though it is brewed with American hops. A deel amber coloured ale, Gone Fishing is fruity and malty - it goes down far too easily for a beer of this strength.

Cask at Shrewsbury Hotel, Shrewsbury โ at 5.5%. Pours a reddish golden brown with a medium sized off-white foamy head and good lacing. Takes a while to settle but does so eventually. Malts to the fore in the aroma and they are prominent again in the mouth. This time with a creamy texture, an infusion of toffee and autumn fruits. Slight bitterness to start, and this becomes more pronounced with traditional hops and some traces of ginger. This is a decent ESB.

On tap @ Bertโs Bar. Pours amber with a decent head. The nose is quite sweet, probably honey and malt. The taste is more honey and malt with a caramel finish. The palate is medium bodied with a good texture but unfortunately the finish is too sweet and therefore itโs slightly unbalanced. Overall, so, so!

Maxโs Taphouse, Baltimore tap: Pours a nice copper color with an off-white head. Aroma is caramel malt, British hops, and some light fruitiness. Taste is mildly bitter and somewhat sweet. This was a very nice and simple, easy drinking beer that was great for kicking off a day at Maxโs.
