Now this is more what I’ve always imagined an ESB to be. Malty, toffee, caramelly & bitter. Great change from fruity hops

Extra points for ESB on cask at the proper cellar temp. A touch too malt but still delicious and still so soft and nice.

Delicious LCI, malty, sessionable and on hand pull which is ideal.

Not what I expected from a 'bitter'. Definitely a NZB, not an ESB.
