It’s the start of a brand-new Patrons Project, and we’re honoured to be welcoming in an icon of the beer world, David Bailey. His work has been gracing walls, comic strips and can labels for years now, with its distinctive style and charming humour.

For this series of 7 beers, we’re going to be highlighting a beacon of beer culture, known across the world for its humble importance. We’re going to the pub!
And what better beer to mark the occasion with than an Extra Extra Special Bitter.

At a boisterous 6.2% and chock full of classic marmalade and caramel notes, this EESB’s drinkability belies its decadence.

440 ml can, from Vinmonopolet, Nettbutikken. ABV is 6.2%. Hazy dark reddish brown colour, moderate off-white head. Aroma of malts and over-ripe red berries. Pleasant flavour, malts and ripe Nordic fruits and berries, hints of toffee and caramel, decent and earthy bittering hops throughout.

Pours a dark amber with fluffy head.

Smell is malty, sweet and nutty with notes of brown bread, rye and toffee with some floral hints.

Taste is rich, malty, sweet and nutty. Moderate bitterness and notes of rye, brown bread, caramel, toffee and honey.

Mouthfeel is medium, soft, smooth and well carbonated.

Overall, a terrific bitter on steroids.
