Style: English-Style Extra Special Bitter

Extra Special Bitter is a traditional English ale which is stronger than the Ordinary Bitter, but less strong than Pale Ale. You could consider E.S.B. to be the beer on which American microbreweries have based many of their Amber Ales. E.S.B. is medium-full bodied, with a deep amber color and fantastic head retention. This beer has enough hops for nice aroma and flavor, but hop bitterness isn't as powerful as in Pale Ale or IPA. Imported British malt, hops, yeast and grains are used exclusively in this recipe.
All our Beer Kits come in a variety of Formulations with two yeast styles and enough ingredients to make 5 Gallons. You can choose from Malt Extract with Steeping Grains, Partial Mash, and All-Grain.
