Day 364-Beer 365-1 Harvest Special Ale, Southern Tier Brewing Co. Lakewood New York
The count down to midnight has begun, after tonight one more beer to go to accomplish my goal of 365 different beers, one each day for the year 2014. Tonight's brew is an ESB an extra special/strong bitter. A similar brew is Hobgoblin. This one pours a golden amber with a couple of fingers of head that leaves some very nice and very sticky lacing. The aroma is grapefruit and caramel malts with an earthy background. The flavour is toffee and caramel background with some nice grapefruit hop bitters. A really nicely balanced ESB with a crisp dry finish and much more flavour than most beer in its style, 3.9 out of 5, I wish I had a couple of these to drink tonight but unfortunately I only bought 1. ....ONE MORE BOTTLE OF BEER ON THE WALL....
