Cask conditioned - gravity dispense - Peterboro BF 2008. A golden coloured beer with a ring of off-white bubbles for a head. The aroma is nicely hoppy, with decent sharp pine notes. The taste is also nice and sharply hoppy with good fruitiness. Very nice.

A Mes rate: gravicask at GBBF.
Clean golden colour with a decent white head. Good grapefruit and other citric hoppy notes. Nice balancing sweet malt with a little toffee. Run of the mill but inoffensive.
