An English style ale brewed with Fuggles and East Kent Goldings hops along with a European yeast strain. This combination gives the beer a subtle hoppiness along with a disinct malty sweetness and complex fruitiness.

A - Poured a very clear, light golden color with a small, white of bubbly foam. It left sudsy trails of lace on the glass.
S - It smelled of sweet caramel and some fruity notes. There were mild floral notes, too.
T - This is fairly fruity for what I expect in an ESB. Good sweet caramel and toffee flavors, too. Mild hop bitterness.
M - It was crisp and smooth. A light to medium bodied ale with a dry finish.
O - This is a nice ESB. It wasn't quite what I expected but it was still good.
