Appearance- Golden brown with very high carbonation, head faded away quickly to leave almost none at all,
Smell- Strong smell of sugar malts, lots of sweetness
Taste- Little bit of sweetness up front with small amount of bitterness on the finish, little bit of fruitiness maybe apples,
Mouthfeel- Pretty thin but you definitely feel alot of carbonation going down
Drinkability- This one was okay but I wasn't to crazily impressed, definitely not hard to drink but felt a bit might been missing here with this one.

Cloudy caramel brown body with a beige head. Sweet fruit esters, caramel, and unnecessary booziness. Taste is way too sweet for an esb, but the malts help dull it by the finish, still one note on the flavor even for this simpler style. Feel is again oddly harsh in the start of the sip, but otherwise malty.
