cask at the coach and horses. What initially strikes me is the amazing malt nose on this, roast coffee, chocolate...amazing! If i’m not after hops this is the beer i’d drink regularly, emminently drinkable and massively flavourful.

Aug 31, 2009 Cask gravity, The Cock, Hemingsford Grey, en route to pinching a delicious but richly deserved point off The Lilywhites. Clear tawny with a beige collar resloving to a slick. Bags of fresh biscuity character; cherry, citrus, husky bitter linger. Fresh tangy sessions with soapy licks. Not enough syrup or sweetness to qualify as a brown ale- just a plain old English bitter to me, except a very good one. Up to the usual standards.

May 18, 2009 Cask in the market porter. Alround rating: An interesting beer, a general nutty brown ale, but with cascade hops, not really my scene.

Jan 31, 2009 A Mes rate. Gravicask at the National Winter Ales festival. Served in absolutely sparkling form. A gorgeous orange brown colour, nice and clean, no head but no worries, there’s plenty of life in it. Superb balance in the aroma, bitter citric hops and amazing bready malt. Flavour is the same. Awesome bitter finish. So drinkable, perfectly balanced. A bloody masterclass in bitter.

Jan 25, 2009 Cask at the Rake, 17th Jan 09, with harrisoni and chriso. Mid amber with a buttery aroma. Very nutty flavour and possible hint of diacetyl. But light on the finish. Would like to re-rate when I get a chance.
