Gravity Cask @ Soton Beer Festival 07. Malt toffee and fruity dried raisins. Earthy floral hops. Good drinkable bitter if a little malty for me.

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.

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.

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.
