Fuller's ESB is an absolute icon of British beer culture from the Griffin Brewery in Chiswick, London, introduced in 1971 as the successor to Old Burton Extra and since then regarded as the brewery's most awarded beer, a three-time CAMRA Champion Beer of Britain and two-time World Champion Beer. The finished beer displays a wealth of rich malt, orangey fruit, and peppery hops on the nose, with a full-bodied attack of juicy malt, orange peel, and bitter hop resins on the palate, while the complex and long-lasting finish is beautifully balanced between malt, hops, and spicy fruit, finally drying off with a bitter hop resin note. Fuller's ESB at 5.9% ABV, brewed with Pale Ale and Crystal malts as well as Northdown, Challenger, Target, and Goldings hops, is the ultimate choice for all lovers of authentic English ales seeking an award-winning, full-bodied, and masterfully balanced Extra Special Bitter, which impresses as an elegant companion to roast beef, cheddar, and classic pub dishes as well as a delightful testament to the timeless greatness and distinctive character of London brewing tradition.
