Balance is finding the point between two opposing forces for a more desirable outcome: Equilibrium. We crafted our Nickel Brook Equilibrium ESB with balance as the primary objective. You'll find the caramel malt character and full body you expect from an English-style Ale, balanced with a generous dose of hops that gives Equilibrium a distinct fruity flavour and mild level of bitterness.

Poured from can into a tulip. Pours orange amber with minimal collar here. nose is typical for red ale -coffee and burnt caramel. Taste is ok nothing too complex here. Was hoping for more.

Pours deep amber with a slight haze, a moderate head and lacing. Aroma: citrus, bubble gum, honey. Flavour: slightly tart, toffee, honey, bubble gum, slightly grassy with s bitterness that lingers. Long mouth - a flavour that lingers over slightly effervescent carbonation.

From Labirratorium. In Ikea's pint glass. At lunch, with rice soup + chicken in sauce. Smooth, with plenty of delicious toffee and a perfect level of strong bitterness
