Cask at The Roebuck, Burton-on-Trent. Pours clear amber with a thin off-white head. Nice lacing. Aromas of caramel, faint dried herbs and light mixed dried fruit. Taste is more of the same. Dry finish with a hint of burton snatch.

Gravicask, one-third pint, shared with Finn at GBBF Winter '23. Filmy layer leaving dotted spots on the glass, clear amber body. Moderate herbal hops and caramel malts on the nose. Blended taste profile of caramel, bread, and a little backdrop of leafy hops, mid-dry. Satisfying. (Burton upon Trent, 16.02.2023).
