Rune (1809), Tromsø, Norway Sep 1, 2008 Cask, third pint at GBBF 08. Golden body colour topped by a ring of bubbles. Light floral aroma. Flavour with notes of hop resin. Dry palate (05.08.2008). Mes_and_Sim (4476), Highgate, Greater London, England Aug 17, 2008 A Mes rate: Gravicask at GBBF. Pale gold with a thin white film. Slight hops, some herbal notes and hints of grain. A hit of sweetness in the finish is instantly kicked out of the way by some old dusky hops. A bit low on character but very drinkable. maeib (4012), Wootton, Northampton, Northamptonshire, England Aug 13, 2008 Cask conditioned - gravity dospense - GBBF 2008. A golden beer with a white head. The aroma has hops in the nose but with an unexpected sweetness. The taste is fairly hoppy with a sweet perfumed mouthfeel. Decent enough but I hoped for more. cgarvieuk (2536), Edinburgh, Scotland Aug 12, 2008 Cask at GBBF ... Pale golden yellow ... light fruity hop ... little malts ... light easy uninspired fruity hop ... Sigmund (1961), Hafrsfjord, Norway Aug 9, 2008 Cask at the GBBF 2008, gravity dispense. Yellow colour, minimal head. Moderate aroma with hints of honey and flowery hops. Reasonably hoppy flavour, hints of citrus, "dusty" hops in the finish. OK, but not really that impressive. Nice hoppy aftertaste though.
