[Cask at the Alehouse, Reading] A dark chestnut pour with a ring of cream head; rich malty aroma with a hint of spice; smooth grainy body with caramel and biscuity malts; then a dry velvety finish with a lightly earthy bitterness. Rather good.

Can at home picked up from Waitrose. A clear pale gold coloured pour with a lasting frothy white head. Aroma is cereal grains, light eggy note, leafy hop, lager notes. Palate is semi sweet, dry grain husks, frorhy carbonation. Flavour is composed of stale grains, husky, earthy cereal. Thin, plastic, weird cereal character. Bit of a weird one. Some medicinal off note in the finish.

Very hoppy, crisp but with a powerful bouquet that can be off putting

Can from Waitrose, Frimley. Herby citrus aroma. Extra pale gold. Foamy white. Medium bitter with a sour edge. Light bodied. Crisp. Average carbonation. Dry finish. Enjoyed this. Wasn't expecting much so fair play. The crisp and dry palate balances well with the herbs and citrus.

Third, gravicask, shared with Finn at the 22nd Oxford Beer & Cider Festival. Bright golden body, shiny naked surface. fragile lacing. Moderate tropical fruity aromas. Taste of peaches and leafy hops, joined by dried fruits towards the finish. Fair enough. (25.10.2019).
