Bottled at Monks Cafe, Stockholm. POurs out in aclear amber colour with a dense lasting white foam. Dense aroma of cookies and fishfood with notes of oranges and fudge. Medium-bodied with notes of oranges, and apricots with strong notes of crackers, white bread, roatsed nuts and earth .Dryish medium-bitter finish with notes of white bread, cookies and nuts. Not aromatic at all.

<i>A Mes rate: Gravicask at Reading Beer Festival.</i><br />Attractive bright gold with a thin white rim. Peachy hops with a delicate sweetness. Bland and boring but completely inoffensive. &#40;6/3/6/3/12&#41;<br /><br />***Re-rate***<br />Dark gold with no head but decent condition, work that one out. A really well balanced brew. Malt and hops are both clear but neither arguing for top spot. Some faint tobacco and some decent citric notes too. Very drinkable. Nice dusty bitter finish with a good dry feel. Decent stuff and much better than when we had it at Reading.

Bottle. Hazy gold with a white foam. Aromas are herbal with bitter lemon. Yeast with soft hops. Flavours are spiced oranges with dry peppery hops. Bitter and dry on the finish with a woody aftertaste. OK.
