COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Cask; Regular.
A pale ’session’ beer which could be described as a purist’s dream, consisting of Maris Otter pale malt, Goldings hops and nothing else! The main quota of hops is added late and the residue is added ’very late’. The result is an unassuming and refreshing beer with fruity ’banana’ notes and a clean mouthfeel.

A Mes rate: Gravicask at the Bricklayers.
Bland bland bland bland. Inoffensive but my god, guess what... it’s bland. Gained a bit of character on the second day but only a little.

maeib (6618) - Wootton, Northampton, Northamptonshire, ENGLAND - MAY 1, 2004
Cask conditioned - no sparkler Malt Shovel Northampton BF. Golden coloured very flat looking beer. No aroma of note and a slight buttery taste. This beer has been sampled before and was much hoppier. I think this beer needs a swan neck to allow its full character to come through.
