Gravicask, one-third pint, shared with Finn at GBBF Winter '23. Filmy layer leaving dotted spots on the glass, clear amber body. Moderate herbal hops and caramel malts on the nose. Blended taste profile of caramel, bread, and a little backdrop of leafy hops, mid-dry. Satisfying. (Burton upon Trent, 16.02.2023).

Gravity cask at the GBBF Winter 2023 Festival, day 2 at Burton On Trent Town Hall, 17/02/23. Amber to golden pour topped with an off white crown. Nose is caramel, light sugars, toasted grains, straw. Taste comprises fruit slice, caramel, brown bread, earthy, dark malts. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, semi drying close. Okay if running a touch sweet for my liking.

Cask at Devonshire Arms, Burton on Trent Pours a bright reddish orange with a tight off-white head and good lacing. Nose has the classic Burton sulphurous “snatch” together with malts and vanilla. In the mouth there is mainly malts plus corn, nuts and hints of oranges and spices. The finish is sweet and malty. Pretty much a classic Burton ale.
