A Mes rate: Gravicask at Reading Beer Festival.
Almost black with a slim beige film. Very earthy and roasty with lovely fruity malt. A little bit chalky and lacking a bit of condition by the time I got to it sadly. I’m sure this is better than this showing.

Jun 4, 2008 Cask conditioned - gravity dispense - Northamptonshire BF. A black beer with a whitish head. The aroma has chocolate, caramel and toffee. The taste has bitter chocolate notes and alcohol. Roasty malts also. A pretty decent stout.

May 14, 2006 Cask conditioned at The Jolly Crispin, Upper Gornal, W.Midlands. Black with a bubbly cream head. Full bodied in yer face stout, rich and silky with heavy coffee notes and particularly dry and bitter. Flavours of licquorice and roasted husks continue right through the beer. A corker.

Feb 9, 2006 Hand pulled at the Wellington, Birmingham. A nice, balanced and tasty Stout. Quite creamy in the mouth and a pleasantly full flavour.
