Defect-Free, Drinkable Beer

Brewed in the style of a traditional British ESB (Extra Special Bitter), Red Hook has been making ESB continuously since 1987, and it's now the benchmark for the Amber beer category. Despite having "bitter" in its name, Redhook ESB is really not that bitter at all. This brew is all about the balance of caramel malt sweetness completed by spicy, citrusy hops.
