2.1 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
Cask@GBBF 2009.
Pale yellow color, small white head, some lace. Sticky "toilet hoppy" aroma, some green apples. Harsh, lime-vegetably hoppy flavor. This tastes a bit like some Czech pilsners. Not very likeable.

A Mes rate: gravicask at Ealing Beer Festival.
Light golden brown colour with a slight haze and a reasonable head. A standard but very balanced and well made bitter. Good grassy hops, good earthy malt... you know the drill. Dry bitter finish is just right. Good stuff.
