BOONT ESB
12 FL. OZ., 6.8% ALC. BY VOL.
Anderson Valley Brewery Company, Boonville, Mendocino County, CA
+++ 1/2

FROM THE LABEL: "Brewed from the finest malted barley, yeast, hops,and pristine Boonville mineral water. Consistently judged one of the worlds finest breweries. Boont ESB is one of the finest examples of the Craft Brewers Art. The generous amounts of malted barley are offset by four separate additions of Pacific Northwest hops. This combination creates a masterpiece in balance between the ambrosial sweetness of the malt and the exquisite taste and savory fragrance of teh spicy hops. This satisfying brew is not for the 'light beer drinker." To fully appreciate the Extra Special Beer its best flavors are realized at 45 - 52 degrees. Enjoy with fine cheese, a well seasoned meal or simply by itself."

FROM THE MOUTH: I am not tasting the sweetness as much as the "four separate hops" but it is blended well, has a bitter kick at the end. And as it states above...not for the light beer drinker. I also see a Gold Medal on the label as well as the bear with antlers- very creative design. A

FROM THE GRILL: See above suggestions under "From the label"

FROM THE STORE: Huckleberries
