Our brewmaster, like so many other brewers, started his journey into craft beer as a homebrewer nearly 10 years ago and one of his first beers he ever brewed on his stove was an Extra Special Bitter inspired by some of Englands finest examples. In constructing the recipe for our Old Beluga Amber Ale he looked backed on his notes from that first ESB he ever brewed, realized it probably wasn't as great of a beer as he thought it was at the time, and worked on a recipe that blended elements of the English-Style ESB with those of an American Amber to create a delightful complex, malt forward Amber Ale filled with aromas and flavors of cherry, nuttiness, and an earthy-herbal hop profile to balance it all out.
