hopIQ found 10 beers with the same caramel and smooth character as Propeller ESB. One of the two beers Propeller opened with in 1997 and still an anchor of the range. Copper-coloured and medium-bodied, it follows the English bitter tradition: caramel and toasted biscuit from the malt, a hint of orange citrus from the hops, and a bitterness that stays firm without turning severe. The finish is smooth and lingers, with malt sweetness and hop bite holding an even balance from first sip to last. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
