12/11/2024. Cask pour shared by danlo, cheers Ed. Pours clear pale straw gold with a small frothy off-white head. Aroma is grainy, citrus, husky fruit, malty, oaty, hay, orange. Moderate sweetness, bitterness and body. Average carbonation. A little watery. It’s okay.

Cask @Treefolk's (Rome). Dorata limpida, schiuma bianca media, discretamente persistente. Al naso leggero zolfo che si attenua dopo poco (pur senza sparire), vaghi sentori citrici ed erbacei. In bocca va meglio, delicata, ben bilanciata, con amaro leggero. Corpo esile, carbonazione soft. Non perfetta.

Gravity Cask at York Beer & Cider Festival 2024. Gluten Free. Amber colour, thin bubbly white foam head and aroma of malt, grain, citrus. Taste is tangy, malty, grains, woody with some citric bitterness. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, dry bitter finish. Quite OK.

330ml bottle from brewer - Clear yellow body, no head. Nose is resinous, piney and a bit metallic. Taste has a piney bitter edge to it. All a bit flat really though.

330 ml bottle, as Wold Top Benchmark Session IPA, from Gulating Ølutsalg, Stavanger. ABV is 4.2%. Clear golden colour, moderate to small white head. Aroma of pine and grapefruit. Fizzy mouthfeel. Dry and "dusty" flavour, with a grapefruity, resinous and medicinal bitterness, but little hop flavour besides the bitterness. Won't buy again.

330ml bottle kindly shared by Finn. Bright late straw coloured body, fair white head, spotty lacing on the glass. Moderate smell of ripe lemon and grass. Fine balanced flavours of leafy hops, ripe citrus, and cereal malts. Drying ending with a nice bitter touch. Likable. (Tromsø 23.07.2021).

Delt med Rune på Nerstranda. Gyldengul. Klar. Middels høyt tett skum som daler sakte. Aroma av mango & klementin. Smaken malt & tørket frukt. Veldig tørr avslutning. Fin bitterhet.
