GBBF. Cask. Hazy brown beer, residual white head. Light dry palate. Fairly rich malt with a tiny bit of toffee. Trace of minerals and some very subtle red fruits. A dry and slightly warming finish. Not bad but it lacks something...

Had this one from gravicask at the second day of GBBF ’11, USA Cask ale Bar. Tiny beige layer to a chestnut coloured body. Mild aroma of dried fruits. Rather flavoursome with dried fruits, bready malts, stonefruits and a touch of berries. Dusty hops to the ending. Flat mouthfeel. Good (London, 03.08.2011).
