ESB #3 Tasting

First taste was disappointing, with the same off-flavours as ESB #2. Subsequent tastes were somewhat better. There appears to be a lot of variability in quality of this batch, which I can only attribute to bottling. Most likely the aeration cased by the bottling wand mentioned in the last post.

Next time I'll use a different bottling wand.

Aroma is good, though not very strong. Bitterness is perhaps a bit on the low side. Body I think is about robust enough for an ESB, with noticable residual malty sweetness. Carbonation a little weak, though acceptable. Head is small.

Overall, 7/10
