1L howler from Sherbrooke Liquor store - just taking a stab at the style, since Endeavour doesn't specify it on their website.
This beer pours a clear, medium orange-brick amber colour, with two fingers of puffy, rocky, and somewhat chunky beige head, which leaves some random streaky and exploding fireworks pattern lace around the glass as it slowly but surely abates.
It smells of gritty and grainy caramel malt, a slightly overripe pome fruitiness, some musty yeast notes, and very faint earthy, leafy, and musky floral green hop bitters. The taste is grainy and mildly biscuity caramel malt, mushy red apples, a still unwelcome estery yeastiness, a hint of plastic packaging material, and more well-understated earthy, herbal, and dead floral hoppiness.
The carbonation is pretty tame in its insouciant-seeming frothiness, the body an iffy middleweight, and not particularly smooth, as that musty essence starts to really mess with things around here. It finishes trending dry, the muted hops somehow holding the majority of the lingering cards.
Overall - yeah, this feels like it wants to be an ESB, but fails on two fronts. One, the low end of the scale approach to expected ABV, and two (more importantly), that musty (almost plastic-like) unpleasantness. This one is an adventure all right, but not exactly in a good way.
