Cask (gravity dispense) at the Bricklayers Arms Yorkshire beer festival, February 2009. Golden amber colour. Slight buttery notes on the nose. Clean and quite citric on the palate which helped to negate the diacetyl in the aroma. Light mouthfeel. OK without really tickling my fancy.

Cask at The New Oxford, Manchester. A hazy amber beer with a thin off-white head. The aroma has notes of malt as well as lighter notes of butter and toffee. The flavor is sweet with notes of butter, malt, and caramel, leading to a dry bitter and buttery finish.

Cask @ The New Oxford, Salford, Manchester M3. Pours a pale amber color with a small off-white head. Has a fruity malty caramel aroma with some hints of butterscotch. Has a fruity malty caramel and toffee flavor with some hoppy hints. Has a fruity malty finish with some bitterness in the aftertaste.

Cask (gravity) @ The New Oxford, 11 Bexley Sq, Salford, Manchester England M3 6DB.
Clear medium amber orange color with a average, fizzy, good lacing, mostly diminishing, off-white to white head. Aroma is moderate malty, toffee, butterscotch. Flavor is moderate sweet and light to moderate bitter with a average duration. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is flat to soft. [20090122]

Cask at Bricklayers Arms Yorskhire Festival 09. Bit of diacetyl. The Bramling Cross hops do come through, but the mouthfeel is too carbonated and there is just too much butter for me.

A Mes rate: gravicask at the Bricklayers Yorkshire fest.
Golden brown with a thin white film. Dullish wheat and malt aroma, faint bitter hoppage along with a bit of leather and tobacco. Lots of leaft hop in the flavour with some faint green tea and a little unbrewed malt. A little too green and uneventful but decent enough overall.
