Jun 8, 2008 Cask, gravity at the Flowerpots brewpub, Cheriton, Hampshire 6th June 2008 Pours very dark brown fading to a mid brown towards the edges. Nose was quite nice and very traditional methinks, with some good solid roasty and woody notes. Tasted very traditional and whilst it initially impressed I felt that it started to lack little as I go down it but interestingly aside from the gentle roasted flavours there was a slightly sour edge and I think that this was intentional with also some nice gentle hoppy flavours coming through, not bad.

May 10, 2007 A Mes rate:
Gravicask @ Reading Beer Festival. Muddy brown colour. Chocolate malt nose let down by a little sulphur. Nice mellow and downable with most of the standard mild attributes. Run of the mill but certainly drinkable.
