A labour of love for Nick, head brewer and founder at Farr Brew; this was the first beer he perfected when the brewery was formed and was runner up in Hertfordshire’s Beer of the Year 2015.
Six types of malt, old and new world hops, treacle and locally sourced honey from the bees that buzz around our barn and surrounding fields all combine to create a deliciously complex porter with a deep chocolatey nose, and a rich, fruity, perfectly hopped flavour.

Gravicask at the 23rd St Albans Beer & Cider Festival. Off-white head to a deep mahogany coloured body. Faint lacing. Smell of earthy malts, mid-sweet. Honeyed malts, dark plums and dark bread to the taste buds. Roasted malt-fruity ending. Medium bodied. Quite alright. (Shared with Finn 27.09.2018).

Fra gravicask på St. Albans beer & cider festival 2018. Delt med Rune. Veldig dyprød. Filmskum. Anonym aroma. Litt rosiner. Smaken tørr. Litt sjokolade. Nøtter. Ingen typisk porter.

Bottle at home from the brewery. Served cold from the fridge it poured well with a respectable head. It tastes like a standard, straight down the line English porter and there is nothing wrong with that at all. There was a surprisingly good balance between bitter and sweet that stood out in the profile. Just plain old nice.
