Dry on the finish with pith bitterness. imdownthepub (4731), Banbury, Oxfordshire, England Apr 11, 2008 Cask conditioned at a Wetherspoons. Gold with no head. Pretty average dry malty bitter, bready notes atouch of yeast, but to bland to get excited about. Pretty ordinary. downender (2171), Bristol, Gloucestershire, England Mar 30, 2008 Cask-conditioned at the Commercial Rooms (JDW), Bristol 30/3/08. Deep golden colour with a moderate white head. Aroma of sweet malt and grassy hops. Flavour had some more sweetness, along with ginger and nutmeg spices and a decent dry finish. Drinkable. MesandSim (4998), London, Greater London, England Mar 16, 2008 A Mes rate: Gravicask at Sussex Beer Festival. Golden brown colour with a thin white rim. Nice balance of malt and hops in the aroma with a delicate sweetness and slight bready notes. Similar flavour, a little bland but with a nice ginger spice note on a dry finish. So so.
