GBBF Day 3. Cask. Lightly hazy amber beer, good pale cream colour head. Palate is light, semi dry and crispy. Light malts, touch of toffee. Hops are spicy orange and orange marmalade. Light floralness. Finishes smooth and dry. Spicy linger. Good stuff.

Cask gravity at the 2014 GBBF. Clear clean copper with a lasting loose white head. Aroma is big caramel sticky sweet, hops are subdued by all the caramel. Hops are resin and pine. Some hot alcohol. And rubber. Flavour is caramel, harsh bitterness and hot alcohol, some marmalade orange peel. Medium sweet palate with lowish carbonation. Pretty poor.
