Cask-conditioned at the Wellington, Birmingham 12/08/08. Opaque black with next to no head. Sweetish, roasted malt aroma. Flavours of dark fruit, a hint of liquorice and a short, dry finish. Despite the ABV, was a lot more subdued than the same brewery’s 4.5% Duke of York tried at the same time. Merely ok.

A Mes rate: Gravicask at Nottingham Beer Fest.
Blakc brown colour with a slight purple hue and a thin rim of tan bubbles. Sweet and fruity with lots of sugar and vanilla. Strong and full. Juicy, rubbery and with a lovely creamy bitter chocolate finish. One of the best beers of the festival.

Cask gravity at Nottingham BF 2007. Black with lasting beige head. Creamy vanilla, very drinkable, doesn’t taste of 5.5% Nice choc. Good. Just very good.
