Cask @ Salhojankadun Pub
Aroma is fruity with bready malt and hints of hay. Flavour has some fruity hops with flowery notes and bready malt. Rather fruity but otherwise quite typical real ale.

[Gravity cask at Chippenham Beer Festival] Light gold. Ginger is evident but is well balanced against the smooth, creamy, malty beer. Surprised me by being one of the better ginger beers I’ve had.
