Airport Hugs
Modern Brewery

 

From a sixteen ounce aluminum can, this beer is a hazy, honey-colored liquid with a slim white head. I really like ESB's. They are a style that is not brewed as much today, unfortunately. This one is solid. Light malt notes, mild fruit notes, drinkable, and just enough bitterness to even out the taste. Medium in body and quite tasty.

 

Had on tap. Right off the bat I will say to let this warm up, they served it way to cool at the brewery, it will blossom open for you revealing the beautiful nuances. Very orange tinted light brown mostly clear body with a large tan head, rungs of lacing. Smell has caramel malt with toast, orange slice, floral notes, yeasty bread, and a kiss of light dark grain. Taste is much the same, more citrus and floral tone emphasis. Feel is medium-light bodied, very smooth, leans malty over yeasty slightly, with hops gently dotting the finish.
