For those of us who love to do SMaSH beers and learn about individual ingredients, this delicious beer may tell you that Gambrinus ESB pale ale malt is the perfect compliment to the pine and passion fruit of Simcoe hops. I split the batch with 2 yeasts: Wyeast 1098(British Ale) and US-05(American ale). While the US-05 showcases the hops a bit more, the 1098 is a bit more interesting.
