Aug 11, 2008 Cask-conditioned at the Old Green Tree, Bath 11/08/08. This was badged as Extra Special Berrow (the 21st anniversary brew) but as the ABV and description are the same, it is rated here. Golden coloured with a decent white head. Summer fruit, grassy hop aroma with a touch of caramel. Flavour had a touch of malty sweetness before some grain and juicy hops, giving way to a refreshing bitter finish. Very drinkable.

Mar 25, 2008 <i>A Mes rate: Gravicask at Planet Thanet 2008.</i><br />Light golden brown with a thin white head and good condition. Lovely wheat and hops with some nice delicate malt underneath. Straight forward but enjoyably drinkable, even if I was the only person at our table who liked it.

Mar 23, 2008 Thanet Easter Beer Fest. The Winter Gardens, Margate. Biscuity and largerish. Stale shortcake biscuits. Pale, brown sugar sweetness. Crude homebrew feel. Almond paste. Not good.
