Gravity Cask @ Southampton Beer Festival ’07. Fresh malty bitter with mild leafy hops. Strawy finish. Quite tasty but doesnt make you pay attention.

First tasted this in Gabriels, Paisley in July 1999. Cask, handpump dispense. Dusty floral hops present in the short aroma. Thin resiny mouthfeel and good lacing. Pale malt delivers a weak digestive base with slight citric notes of fresh lemon rind. Decent smack of floral hop resins add to the building up of bitter flavours in the astringent aftertaste. Finish is dry hopped with citric notes of lemon and lime which fade fast. An ok session bitter but there are better out there.

Pint pulled at the Lister Arms in Malham (Yorkshire), poured mily white before settling to a clear amber with a creamy white head. A very chardonay-like buttery aroma. The flavour was predominantly malty, slightly caramal, with a gentle hoppy bitter finish.

Bottle. Not filtered to well, as plenty of yeast at the bottom. Amber coloured with a slim white head. Aroma of light malt, hops and fruit. Quite a nice taste, hoppier than I was expecting; nicely balanced by the malt. Dryish, medicinal hoppy bitter finish. Medium bodied. Good.
