Bishops Finger

◎ Aussehen

Bishops Finger displays an attractive rich ruby hue with excellent clarity and a sturdy, persistent head. The deep amber-tinged color reflects its heritage as a traditionally-brewed ESB with substantial malt character. Carbonation is well-balanced, supporting a visually appealing presentation.

◌ Aroma

The nose is dominated by classic English malt with prominent notes of caramel and dark fruit—particularly prunes and dried apricot. Subtle floral hop character emerges beneath, complemented by warm bread-like grain notes that suggest proper kettle work and noble hop usage.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is full-bodied and malty with immediate caramel sweetness balanced by restrained hop bitterness. The mid-palate showcases complex layers of bread, nutty undertones, and dark fruit complexity, while the bitterness gradually builds with a distinctive blood-orange citrus character that provides welcome refreshment.

◑ Abgang

A soft, clean finish with lingering bitter notes that fade gracefully without harshness. The aftertaste maintains the blood-orange character with a subtle drying effect that encourages the next sip.
