Coarse offwhite head. Hazy brown body. Catty fruity aroma with floral honey notes. Dry-sweet honey malts taste with floral fruity notes. Mid-bodied. Mild mouthfeel. Dry-sweet fruity resiny aftertaste with wooden caramelly notes. Very nice. Has some character, but could use more. Could also use more CO2. (0.5pt draft, brewpub.)

Medium creamy offwhite lasting head. Hazy opaque yellow body. Catty resiny chalky aroma with floral notes. Bitter-sweet chalky catty strawy taste with meaty honeyish resiny notes. Mid-bodied. Mild faintly fizzy mouthfeel. Dry-bitter resiny nutty funky aftertaste with horseblanket and smoke notes. Nice, but too much simcoe, otherwise good. (0.5pt draft at brewpub.)

Cask cellar run at Brew Wharf, Borough, Thanks to Ang for the offer and to Bobinlondon for insisting they get it. Big hops on the aroma. Gold, slight haze. Big flavour, lots of intense tangerine. Good resin good hop intense flavour. Touch of rubber on the hop, but lovely hopped beer.

Cask handpull at Brew Wharf, Borough, thanks to Bobinlondon for buying it. Brown bitter which is not great. Some barely ok hop on end, some sweet toffee and strawberry flavour.

Cask at Brew Wharf. Pours a semi-clear, amber-gold with a thin, foamy head. Rich malt aroma with chestnut and caramel. Lightly sweet flavor with earthy bitterness. Quite bready. Medium bodied with soft carbonation and light resin feel. Finishes with faint honey sweetness and mild, dirty bitters. Very good.

Tap at the Brew Wharf. Pours hazy brown with a bubbly, filmy tan head. Holds a rich hop aroma with light caramel. Flavor is semi-sweet with pronounced, earthy bitterness. You can almost taste the whole flower hops. Medium bodied with soft carbonation and a sticky, piney and resiny body. Finishes sweet and bitter, with some just perceptible roasted barley. Very good.

(Gravicask at Brew Wharf, Southwark, London, 3 Aug 2010) Deep golden colour with foamy white head. Fruity, malty nose with notes of peaches, grainy malt and dusty hops. Malty, fruity taste with apricots, citrus and dusty hops. More than medium body, solid malt sweetness. Decent.

On tap at Brew Wharf on 3rd September 2010. Copper with clean white head. Very patchy lacing. Aroma is of malt and soft fruit. Main taste in mouth is both malty and bitter, without too much sweetness. Finish is solidly bitter on a light to zingy textured mouthfeel. Very pleasant quencher, just above session strength. Well crafted.

2nd September 2010 at Brew Wharf. I noted this as 4.1%? Hazy amber beer with a good off white head. Fairly dry palate. Dry malt base. The hops are slightly spicy and feel vaguely ’green’ - I mean like that slight vegetal feel you get if you licked a raw hop! Finishes dry with some orange hop coming forward and a bitterish aftertaste. Nice enough but I couldn’t drink more than a pint.
