Cask into pint glass.
Golden amber hue with a one finger tan head that slowly settles to a very thin cap, with swirl patterns. The aroma is well balanced, with slightly assertive hops over a solid bready malt base. The flavor is the same, with bitter hops and the perfect amount of toasty malts to balance. Full bodied with good carbonation. The finish is a little bit of lingering hop bitterness.
Another good cask offering form Vintage 50. I think this is a great example of an ESB. Balance is the key. Recommended.
