Elysian Brewing Company's very first beer, The Wise ESB is the beer that put Elysian on the map as one of Seattle's defining breweries. In one bold stroke, Elysian both resurrected the traditional English Extra Special Bitter style and reimagined it with a flavor profile born in the heart of America's Pacific Northwest hops country. First a local favorite, The Wise soon became the world-class brew everybody wanted...as well as a symbol of Seattle's iconic beer scene. And now - 20 years and three Great American Beer Fest gold medals later -- homebrewers everywhere can brew a piece of this history themselves, with Elysian The Wise ESB Brewery Edition Recipe Kit. We started with the authentic recipe supplied by Head Brewer Josh Waldman, then we tweaked and tested, added and experimented until we came up with the perfect combination of malty, hoppy, bitter and crisp. The result is a glorious reddish-copper ale that perfectly balances complex malts with bold local hops and sweet, subtle aromas of caramel, honey, citrus and a hint of pine. Brewing Notes: Style: ESB OG: 1.060 SRM: 12.5 IBUs: 60 ABV: 6.2% Tasting notes: Caramel Honey Citrus Floral Hops Complex Malts Tasting Notes:Reddish-copper ale that pours with a thin, creamy beige head.
