Smells like slightly soured malt. Taste has soft carbonation, on cask. Has some mild bitterness. Actually one of the most decent profiles of an ESB I’ve had, especially considering I don’t really like the style that much. Definitely some fruitiness in there, apple or pear or something. Subtle but it’s there. On cask at barvolo.

Golden coloured. Sweet maltiness, balanced bitterness. An odd hint of cellar flavour.

If anyone can explain why a brewery that specializes in cask ales serves their ESB off nitrogen, I could really use some help with that one.
