L.B. ESB

Description

Parrotdog's L.B. ESB is a captivating take on the classic Extra Special Bitter style. This beer boasts a clear copper hue and a thick, off-white head that exhibits excellent retention, promising an engaging visual experience. The aroma is a delightful blend of robust maltiness, with hints of caramel bread crust and toffee, balanced by subtle floral and earthy hop notes from the Centennial and Magnum hop varieties. This interplay of malt and hops sets the stage for a well-rounded and complex flavor profile. On the palate, the L.B. ESB delivers a full-bodied and malty experience, with flavors of biscuit, caramel, and a hint of sweetness. The lingering hop bitterness provides a refreshing counterpoint, while notes of citrus and pine from the hops add a subtle complexity to the overall character. The medium-bodied, smooth, and creamy texture, coupled with a moderate carbonation, creates a lively effervescence that leads to a clean and slightly bitter finish, leaving a lasting hop presence.
