Barley & Hops Brewery - Hoptopsy ESB Review



Type: ESB

ABV: 5.6%

Color: Light Copper with virtually no head. Gold hues at the top and bottom of the glass

Aroma: Some nice malt sweetness with a chill floral "over-scent" , that is crisp and refreshing.

Taste: Very nice hoppiness that lets go to a nice malt body. The tongue stays entertained long after the swig. The finish is dry and welcoming.

Overall: Nice balance between  3 things...sweetness, bitterness and dryness. It is supposed to be an ESB, but it would rank with some of the better IPA's out there.


Score: 9.0/10.
