Brew Review: Ska ESB Special Ale

Next on my Ska list was the ESB.  I’ve always been a bit of a sucker for this style of beer.  It’s thick and malty, slightly sweet, but not sugary.  A nice bitter hop to balance out the malts.

The Ska ESB fell into that mold fairly well.  It wasn’t as malty as I had expected, but still very tasty.  It’s a nice golden color with an almost grassy hop aroma.  Crisp flavor with a small bitter bite to it.  The finish was surprisingly clean, which was a great way to finish this beer up.

Well done Ska!  You’ve created a good stable beer that’s worth having a few.
