Cask @ Nags Head, Walthamstow. Clear golden-blonde with a small head. It’s a hoppy session ale with a dryish aftertaste.

Fra gravicask på St. Albans beer & cider festival 2018. Delt med Rune. Varm gylden. Skum langs glasset. Aroma av søte plommer. Smaken litt frukttyggegummi med en tørr avslutning.

Too much torrified it just kills any good elements of this beer. Verry old skool macro style. With tunage it could be a good beer.

Sample at the Hertford North Station bar. Good colour, fine head and an easy drinking beer with balanced hops and malt. Very enjoyable and a good low abv.

Cask-conditioned, at the Seven Stars, Bristol, 4/10/2017. Golden in colour, with a thin, off-white, head. Leafy hops, some citrus fruits and biscuity malts, before a moderately bitter finish. Fine.
