A pale session bitter brewed with malted barley & wheat, topped off with a blend of Progress, Pioneer& Cascade hops to give a refreshing bitter-sweet beer with a gentle citrus nudge.

Cask at The Empress, Romsey Town area of Cambridge, Saturday 20th December 2014. Pours clear amber good clarity. Flat and boring. I never had high hopes for this beer but still disappointed as it is at best a below average effort. To be fair to the pub it is in good nick, its just a bit poor really. A6 A4 T5 P2 Ov10 2.7

Gravicask, shared with Finn at St Albans Beer Festival. Bright dark golden coloured body. Vanishing beige head, fragile lacing. Fruity hops on the nose with hints of vegetables. Mild malt-fruity taste partially overrun by boiled vegetables. Thin to medium bodied. Not that great, possible to drink. (25.09.2014).

Cask @ Gallows Bird ⅩⅦ Real Ale Festival
Aroma has butter, diacetyl and almost nothing else. Perhaps some toffee and distant grassy tones. Flavour has strong buttery tones, diacetyl, some minerals and hints of toffee. Too much diacetyl here.
