Gravity at Banbury Beer Festival. Yellow. Rich, full, citric taste from beginning to end. Enough taste, but not too much. Nice, smooth and oiley mouthfeel. Tangy, crisp, refreshing. Quite splendid Golden beer.

A very pale coloured ale, with a loose head that soon disperses. Definite citrus notes on tasting, but remains smooth and refreshing. A fine flavour for a 4 percenter.

Gravity, Oxford CAMRA Festival. Attractive light copper with a cap of sticky white head. Bright fruity and citrus aromas with a nice catty smack, (could there be Columbus in here?) light carmel sweetness, soft all around. The flavor has a subtle play between the estery fruitiness, fresh hop flavor, and soft malts, all blended so seamlessly that it’s impossible to tell where one ends and the others begin. A delicious lingering toastiness in the finish. This is a profoundly good, well-made ale, thoroughly deserving it’s accolades. An amazing amount of flavor and interest packed into such a work-a-day style. Also a solidly English beer in yeast character.

GBBF 2003: I would say it's a darn good brew! Nice intense and pleasant hops and grass nose. Golden color with a little whit foamy head. Hoppy - first some edges on the tongue, takes then a while until it ends in a wonderful smooth and silky finish. Just the mouthfeeling itself was great.

Cask @ 3 Legged Mare. Bright, golden color with a bubbly white head. Spiciy, citric hoppy aroma, bright and perfumey. Malty, citric, mineral flavor with refreshing notes and a lasting finnish. Medium to light palate, lasting and vivid. Bright, refreshing and intense golden ale.
