Mungo (2474), Southampton, Hampshire, England Jun 19, 2007 Gravity Cask @ Soton Beer Festival 07. Malt toffee and fruity dried raisins. Earthy floral hops. Good drinkable bitter if a little malty for me. Magic_dave6 (3752), London, Greater London, England May 9, 2007 Best beer in Edinbrugh. Aroma is spicey malts and peppery hops. Taste is rich and spicey off the malt, well balanced by floural and peppery hops, super drinkable. cgarvieuk (2357), Edinburgh, Scotland Apr 10, 2007 Updated: Sep 17, 2007Brown coloured ale, with a light malt aroma, and a sweet malty fruity flavour. nicly balanced
Tk2 brown colour ... light water fruit hop aroma ... spicy hops and fruit malt. 3.3->3.5 chris_o (4409), London, Greater London, England Jun 4, 2006 Cask (gravity dispense), Cambridge Beer Festival, May 2006. Chestnut brown colour. Slightly creamy, whisky malt type aroma that reminded me a little of that horrid McGregor stuff from Belgium. And there’s a big whiff of diacetyl too, which I’m guessing wasn’t intentional, so I suppose the conditioning may be to blame. Those elements combined to produce a rather unpleasant aroma. Better (but dull) on the palate, with some sweet malt and no hop presence to speak of. Not my thing at all, but, as joeh says, it’s drinkable.
dnas2 (524), Yelverton, Devon., Devon, England May 25, 2006 Cambridge Beer Festival (Gravity). Amber-brown with no head, just a faint scum on top. Very strong caramel aromas in the nose, smoked nuts in the mouth. Let down by a chlorine aftertaste. Not at all bitter, thick and still on the palate.
