Served in a glass but originated in a bottle? At Alder Carr Farm Shop, Needham Market. Vague malty aroma. Copper gold. Creamy white head. Medium bitter with a sour tang. Some malts and a sliver of butter. Light-medium bodied. Thin bodied. Lifted by soft-fizzy carbonation. Long dry finish. Decent stuff. May benefit from being my first rate of the hols.

Cask at GBBF 2009. Fairly typical blond ale, nothing wrong with it, but a bit watery.

Sample, gravicask, from the East Coast Bar, GBBF 09. Clear golden in appearance. Light floweriness of hops to the nose. Some balance of passion fruits and semi-sweet malts in flavour. Subdued bitter finish. Average for the style (Earls Court 07.08.2009).

Cask@GBBF2009. Golden colour, small white head. Aroma is wood, fruits, hops, grass and some mild sappy notes. Flavour is quite much the same. Wellbalanced. Gets quite grassy in the finish and aftertaste.
