Third, gravicask at GBBF Winter. Shared with BeerViking and Finn. Almost clear amber-gold body, dotted spots on the glass, fair white head. Moderate malt-fruity smell, herbal dry. Mixed taste character of mid-sweet caramel malts and ripe citrus. Mid-dry bitter finish. Satsifying. (Birmingham 04.02.2020).
