Avery Brewing Co. - 14'er ESB Review




Type: ESB

ABV: 5.13%

Sight: Straight up orange with a dulling browness hue to it. The head pours light Off-white that is a finger thick.

Aroma: Orange citrus and grass lead the way with a sweetness pulling up the rear. Very plasant and inviting.

Taste: A nice dry grassy and hoppy front with a little citrusy bite. The malt sweetness is the thing that brings things around full-circle.

Overall: Fits the style well with angy bitterness and brownish in color, malt balance and a light to medium mouthfeel. Enjoyable and sessionable. It finishes clean with a light citrus tingle on the back edges of the tongue. Good job paying tribute to those beautiful peaks in your backyard Avery. I'll see you in November.

Score: 8.3/10
