Gravity cask at Bedford Beer Festival 2022. Pours deep brown with a beige cap. Aroma of roasted malts, biscuits, light chocolate, nuts, some chilli. Light to moderate sweet & bitter, then a warming chilli note comes marching in. Decent tingle for sure! Medium body with soft carbonation. Semi dry finish. Works for me although it wont be for everyone

16/6/2022. Cask at the 30th East Anglian Beer & Cider Festival, Bury St Edmunds. Pours clear dark amber brown with a small frothy off-white head. Aroma of malt, caramel, fruits, touch berry/veggie, earthy, stagnant water. Moderate sweetness and bitterness with light tartness. Oily and watery, light spritzy carbonation. Looked great but wasn’t, maybe the cask wasn’t in the best shape.

16/6/2022. Cask at the 30th East Anglian Beer & Cider Festival, Bury St Edmunds. Pours clear dark gold with a small frothy off-white head. Good looking beer. Aroma is citrus, malt, caramel, veg, musty, mucky, earthy, bit farty even. Moderate sweetness, bitterness and body. Oily and watery, soft carbonation. Drying, stewed finish. Like their other one on at the festival, looked great but didn’t seem right – possibly heat affected?
