SilkTork (3881), Rochester, Kent, England Apr 16, 2008 Thanet Easter Beer Fest. The Winter Gardens, Margate. The Easter XB. Light and drinkable with little chocolate but easy drinking and pleasant. lagomswedish (206), Umeå, Sweden Apr 2, 2008 Draft at The Ship in Whitstable High Street. Copper brown in colour with a malty nose. Lots of toasty malt flavour and a pleasant bitter finish. Didn’t get much chocolate at all, so apparantly missed most of the point of this beer..... Thomas_E (4965), Copenhagen, Denmark Apr 2, 2008 Cask @ Charlies, Copenhagen. Clear orange, amber colour with a thin off white head. Caramel sweet aroma with fruity and floral notes. Malty, caramel sweet flavor with a light hoppy bitterness and a dry finish. Ungstrup (11136), Frederiksberg, Denmark Mar 31, 2008 Cask at Charlie’s Bar, Copenhagen. An amber beer with a thin orange head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of caramel and flowers, and some odd spicy, soapy note. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of caramel and toffee as well as a lighter estery fruity note, leading to a dry nutty finish. Mes_and_Sim (4356), Highgate, Greater London, England Mar 25, 2008 A Mes rate: Gravicask at Planet Thanet 2008. Golden brown with virtually no head to speak of. Nice malts and erm... firmly on the bland side. I’m sorry? What chocolate? Inoffensive session stuff...
