Can with a code on the bottom, but no date as far as I can tell, drunk 11/23/25, as pictured.
Really nice yeast signature in the nose. Seems very authentic, with good minerality, light salinity, light cellar, light funk. I think the funk is more a rustic hop character. There's baguette, malty yet seemingly nicely attenuated behind it. Very clean and well-presented.
Similar in the flavor, though with a bit stronger hop presence that also contributes a bit of lemon that the nose lacks. Bitterness is pretty high, though not problematic. Excellent malt texture and attenuation with an authentic yeast character. Really impressive. If the beers contracted out of Berkshire Brewing are this good, then maybe it's time to revisit Berkshire Brewing's beers??

Undated can from the warm shelf, drunk 11/20/25, as pictured.
Lightly fruity, lightly-to-moderately toasty with light chocolate accents and a bit of caramel and bread.
Lightly malty but very attenuated exposing a bit more bread, toast and scratchy malt than I'd like. There's still some softer malt elements adding caramel and light honey, and the fruity yeast is helpful, but still just a bit too dry and toasty overall.

Undated can drunk 8/8/25.
Clear blonde-brass-golden. Large, off-white head, steadily to clumpy cover.
Very round, rich, deep, herbaceous nose with dainty, honey-like malt to balance it. Clean and with not too much bread. Big mineral and a snappy finish.
Rich and hoppy in the mouth with floral and herbal accents and a light, honey-like maltiness. Lingering peppery bitterness and a rather watery palate, probably forced carbonation, though not quite as much malt depth as I'd like, either. That said, the flavors are phenomenal. Clean, crisp, clear, deep. Good dryness on the finish. Given how well these last two lagers brewed at Berkshire Brewing came out, I may have to try some more BBCo beers soon (not that I ever soured on them, just lost interest due to lack of innovation on their part).

Can with some code, but not a date, drunk 8/5/25.
Clear, bright, brass-golden with a fluffy, white head.
Nice snappy, bright nose with biscuity malts and light bread and honey accents. Deep, peppery hoppiness with light fresh herb. Clean.
Earth, plaster, mineral and such from yeast. Maybe a bit heavy in the earthy/musty department, but otherwise malty and attenuated with ample, but not overdone hopping.

Can from the Packie
Pours a lightly hazy dirty gold color with a bubbly while head that dissipates a bit quickly. rich bready toasty maltiness with some hints of toffee and earth. Been a while since Ive had an ESB and I enjoyed it.
