Hoppy and dry with some grassy flavours, not bad, I like this style of beer, but not that memorable

DruncanVeasey (6114) - NUNEATON, Blue Square Premier, Warwickshire, ENGLAND - OCT 9, 2011
Gravity, Hinckley 2011, 16/09/11. Cool name, great beer. Just when I was losing faith, Northern put this one on the table. Top festival nick; brilliant limey green-gold with a fine, tenacious white foam lacing all the way. Juicy aroma with melon, slight spliff and red apple suggestions. Thick, stewed tea-dunked malts with a thread of rauch; hops actually secondary, but ripe and slightly grassy and pineapple/mango-accented. Great balance, lingering wisp of smoke. Beer of The Festival.

Pale blond with a bright white head. Light, floral hop aroma. Fresh tasting beer with a hint of apple. Dry hops come through in the finish.

Cask at Wellington Arms, Bedford. Pale gold with a small white head. Slight hoppy aroma with some butter. Taste was full, with citrus, sweet malt and a little elastoplast. Mid bitter finish. Quite liked it.

Svesse (5197) - Hässelby, SWEDEN - AUG 23, 2008
(Cask at Pembury Tavern, Hackney, London, 5 Aug 2008) Copper colour with brief, white head. Fruity nose with notes of apricots, orange, mandarin and citrus peel. Fruity taste with mandarin, orange and citrussy hops in a fairly short finish. Rather sweet, body slightly below medium. Decent golden ale.

DanielBrown (3167) - Birmingham (via Leicester), West Midlands, ENGLAND - SEP 29, 2005
Hand pulled at the Wellington, Birmingham. Great hoppy aroma - fresh and tart. Light, creamy, tasty. A little malty milk on the finish, which I’d prefer not to have. But this is another good product from a company I like.
