Commercial Description:
Cask & Bottle Conditioned.
A mouthwatering cask conditioned ale based on a traditional blend of fine British pale ale malt with a subtle addition of crystal, chocolate and black malts to give this prince of beers real character. The delicate addition of Challenger and Goldings hops at critical times of the boil add to the mellow complexity of this beer.

Bottled@Fonefan. Amber colour, small head. Aroma is hops, caramel, sweetish sour fruits and mild notes of toffee. Flavour is hops, grass and some mild citrusy notes. Aftertaste has a strange soapyness coming in. Interesting, yet not that special.

Bottle @ YNWA, Kolding.
Pours dark golden with a small, disappering head. Aroma is sweet and malty, some slight berries. Light mouthfeel, low carbonation, still okay. Flavour is okay as well, some caramel, toffee, weak smokiness and general herbal sweetness. Okay.

A Mes rate: Gravicask at Coventry Beer Festival.
Nice copper brown with a slim white head. Very bland all round really. Lots of caramel and very green. Tastes like it’s not ready yet to me.

Cask conditioned at Coventry Beer Festival ’08. Brown to gold with white head. The beer is quite Welsh in its malty quality, quite heavy and a touch sweet, sugary. There is some frutiness and a little hop on investigation, a touch lemony, but the principal taste is the sweetness.
