Three Floyds Lord Rear Admiral Extra Special Bitter Ale

 Three Floyds Lord Rear Admiral Extra Special Bitter Ale. 6.5 % ABV, 55 IBU, Three Floyds Brewing, Munster, IN. 

Clear and copper colored, slim, off-white head.

In the nose: slightly sweet, malty nose, considerably clean. 

In the mouth: crisp and clean, mildly malty. Expertly drinkable, nicely hopped, well balanced. Goes good with darts and bangers & mash. ‘It’s a fine ESB, but I did not detect any “apricot hoppiness.” 

Three Floyds’ version of an ESB, this deep amber ale has a complex malt sweetness and pronounced apricot hoppiness. Named after Admiral Lord Horatio Nelson.
