Bottle at home, thanks to Jason & Tracey, 03/11/19. Clear golden copper with a well presented off white head. Nose is fruit esters, grass, straw, dusty hop presence, airy malts. Taste comprises biscuit malt, crackers, straw, faint lemon rind, dried fruits, light citric drizzle, grass. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, drying close with a light flurry of bitterness. Fine for the style.

Gravicask at Spa Valley 9th Beer & Cider Festival. Shared with Finn. Off-white head to a brown-reddish body, lacing rings down the glass. Malty-fruity smell. Nuts, chocolate and biscuit to the taste buds. Nicely roasted bittersweet finish. Likable. (Tunbridge Wells 18.10.2019).

Pours very clear blonde. Foam fades instantly. Smell is weak, very restrained hoppy notes. Bit heavy on the caramel, as far as something can actually be heavy, in a scent that is this mild. Taste is sharp, fleshy almost ( yet not smokey, nor fruity ) , but feels strangely… Thick ? Not in terms of high gravity though, just the absent of freshness, crispyness, without actually being a negative. Lower bitterness. Very mild carbonation that feels very arteficial ( starting relatively high, but than completely fading to zero before swalowing ) it's very interesting for sure. perhaps the strange element in here comes from the rakou hops, since those are new to me. Far to easy to drink. Bit strange on the carbonation, and after a few seconds, this beer looks like filtered apple juice, but hey, it's not bad at all.
