  • Transmitter Brewing BNY4 | Extra Special Bitter Review
    Nov 6 2026

    This time on The Ales & Tales Podcast, we're cracking open BNY4 Extra Special Bitter from Transmitter Brewing in Brooklyn, New York.

    At 5.3% ABV, this ESB brings a bitter, malty character with little to no sweetness. But what really caught our attention was the can itself. Transmitter doesn't just tell you what's in the beer—it gives you recommendations for the type of glass to use and the temperature at which to enjoy it.

    How important are those details? Does the right glass and serving temperature change your beer-drinking experience? And what did we think of this particular Extra Special Bitter?

    Join us as we taste, discuss, and explore another craft beer!

    Beer: BNY4 Extra Special Bitter
    Brewery: Transmitter Brewing
    Location: Brooklyn, New York
    ABV: 5.3%
