SilkTork (3908), Rochester, Kent, England May 4, 2008 Gravity at Rochester Sweeps Festival. Honey sweet with some soap. Gppd fruit notes edging on citric but sweeter like sweet tangerine or mango. Yes - mango.
Nekronos (1943), Xalapa, Mexico Sep 16, 2008 Very nice, creamy foam and thick. It was not so bright but indeed goldy. I had it at GBBF 2008. MiP (6017), Flensburg, Germany Sep 9, 2008 Cask, 4.8% at GBBF08. OK citric hop aroma. Hazy golden colour, good stable white head. Good citric flavour, a bit rough but nice. Svesse (1806), Hässelby, Sweden Aug 25, 2008 (Cask at Market Porter, Borough, London, 8 Aug 2008) Golden colour with brief, white head. Fruity, fresh nose with notes of citrus and floral hops. Fruity, fresh taste with lots of citrus and a rather bitter finish with floral, citrussy hops. Medium body, balanced sweetness. Nice and refreshing beer. Mes_and_Sim (4465), Highgate, Greater London, England Aug 25, 2008 A Mes rate: gravicask at GBBF. Really bright gold with a thin white head. Sweetish and fruity with some very pleasant floral hoppage. Decent bitter finish with eventual earth and bread. harrisoni (5331), Ashford, Kent, England Aug 19, 2008 Cask at GBBF 08. Gold, thin white head. It’s a fine golden ale, some toffee, some hop, some fullness because of the alcohol. But ultimately a little empty. Some lemon flavour towards the end.
