Gravity cask. Dull amber-brown. Sort of a dull quasi-malty aroma. Malt accent, crackery, soft with a slightly acidic finish.

@ Jamaica Inn. Dullish amber. The aroma is vague caramel, earth and spice. Fairly bland with earthy slightly astringent bitterness, and a somewhat slick caramel finish.

[Gravity cask at the Fez-tival at the Boathouse, Dawlish Warren, Devon] Failed to write down the ABV for this one - I’ve emailed both the brewery and pub but have yet to have a response from either. I’ll update the entry if I do find out. Pours amber, slight white head. Initially syrup-sweet, then growing grassy hops. A dusty straw bitterness in the finish. A slightly sticky mouthfeel means that this lacks the thirst-quenching refreshment you expect from a summer ale.
