330ml bottle [courtesy of Grumbo - cheers Graham!]. Jet black colour with average, creamy, moderately lasting and lacing, beige head. Roasty, slightly chocolately, dark malty, slightly yeasty spicy and minimally yeasty fruity aroma, some chocolate, cocoa, a touch of plum, dark berries, black pepper, dust. Taste is sweet-ish, roasty and chocolately, dark malty, notes of molasses, milk chocolate; minimally warming, alcoholic finish. Creamy texture, smooth and soft, minimally cloying palate, medium to fine, soft carbonation. A bit raw and dirty - not bad.

Gravicask at The 14th Robin Hood Beer and Cider Festival 2022, Marquee Bar. Shared with Finn. Misty golden body, filmy layer, dotted spots on the glass. Promising fresh fruity aromas, lots of citrus. Lemony hops and a bite of orange to the taste character. Ends with a decent touch of fruity bitterness. Quite moreish. (Nottingham 13.10.2022).
