Sierra Nevada ESB (Early Spring Beer)
Nice change of pace for SN. This beer pours a clear light orange that practically glows with backlighting. Medium sized off white head that slowly fades to a covering. Nice lacing. Smell is ok, bready malts. Taste is good, bready malts with mild finishing bitterness. Nicely balanced and not too sweet. This is not a classic gotta have it beer, but would do fine as a staple in somebodies regular rotation. Mouthfeel is rich enough, light and crisp. This is a very drinkable beer. Would be great for a session as it is low enough in abv and, I believe, the flavor would hold up. Very tasty!!
