Poured from the can into a nonik pint glass.
Copper to orange like colored body, with a slight bit of haze to it. Some light amounts of carbonation to be seen. Head creation is a fizzy and fine two fingers off khaki to off white color, resulting in a very quick disolve. Slightly bubbly collar, and a thin top with a little bit of bubbles left.
Aroma consists of quite a bit of oddity. Slightly ferrous but even a bit gaseous and dioxide smelling. Hints a little bit of cream and caramel in the mix but quite tiny and non existent behind this aggressive somewhat not too enjoyable aroma.
Palate improves at least a bit. A good mix of light bitterness and creamy orange mixing in the mid palate. Those flavors transpire with a little bit of steely orange bitterness in the finish as well. However, the mouthfeel is exceptionally watery and has a very cola like carbonation. Heavily flavored also in carbon dioxide like gas that takes away much enjoyment, with a palate that dissolves very quickly.
The flavors on the palate are pretty solid and to style, but the mouthfeel on this beer is borderline ruinous. A good ESB is lurking in here but is not going to happen.

A sixer fm Eddie's of Mount Vernon here in Baltimore (packaged 01/07/20) poured into a variety of glassware: nice orange body with a large white head; NOT much nose; a satisfying malt taste; a tad more carbonation than I like - a solid ESB
