cask at Gallows Bird Espoo 190408 Color:copper: Scent:fruits Taste:fruity and then hops. Aftertaste more hoppy than fruity.Nice session ale thanks low alcohol. I tried to re-rate Btiter&Twisted but cask has changed in one day!

Flavor is moderate sweet and moderate to light heavy bitter with a average to long duration. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is flat. (020508)

Gravity at Reading Beer Festival 2 May 08. Golden colored. Almost no head. Aroma of citrus. Well integrated flavor of grapefruit and other fruits. A fruity bitterness kicking in.

Gravity dispense. Russet body colour, slightly hazy. Fragile layer on the surface. Nice fruity aroma. Hoppy flavour displaying grapefruit, peaches and a touch of malt. Dry bitter endnotes (sampled with Finn at The Reading Beer Festival 02.05.2008)

Cask conditioned at Banbury Beer Fest ’08. Gold to brown with white head. This packs one powerful punch to the tastebuds for the ABV. Light malty body carrying a big grapefruity hop, refreshingly dry and bitter, an excellent beer in my book and could well be my beer of this festival.

Cask gravity at The Ship & Mitre pub beer festival, Liverpool. Old gold colour with disappearing head. Nettle hop aroma, bit of tea. Tea and nettle finish. Not my favourite combo of flavours, but it does pack a punch with the hops on the end.
