A Boy Named Sumac is an ESB with sumac served on nitro. This beer is copper in color with cascading bubbles and a frothy white head carrying bread-like and grassy aromas with a hint of lemon citrus. Immediately the creamy texture and medium body are appreciated before the flavors of toasted biscuit are complemented by lemony herbal hops. Balanced and easy to drink, A Boy Named Sumac finishes smooth with a touch of bitterness.

Very solid ESB. Served on tap at the pub. Nirto. Penny-copper color with a thick, rich, and creamy head. Nice toasted malt aroma with some herbal notes. Flavor is toasted bread, biscuit malt, lemony and herbal hops. Absolutely velvety smooth feel.
