Light haze on this gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Palate is light, fairly dry and has modest carbonation. Smooth but grainy malts. Little floral hop and mild earthy citrus. Fortunately the taste lacks the rubber and plastic that was on the nose. Light dry finish. It’s weak but passable.

Clear golden color with a white head on top. Some lacing. Ok hop intensity in the aroma. Medium body and a soft carbonation level. Good balanced sweetness versus bitterness. Semi dry ending. Citric, fruity and some pine in the flavor. Nice session able beer.

Gravicask at Chelmsford & Mid Essex Winter Beer Festival. Shared with Cunningham. Bright golden-brown body. Bubbly white head. Mild lemony hops on the nose. Fresh flavour profile of tropical fruits, grapefruit and lemon. Rather short mid-dry fruit bitter end. Refreshing (17.02.2017).
