 DruncanVeasey (1620), Burbage, Leicestershire, England
Aug 6, 2008 The Griffin Inn, Shustoke. Think this was actually listed at 5.5%? It certainly drank at that strength. Deep gold with milky lace. Slick and curranty with loads of wood and subtle peaty malt richness. Delicate vine fruit and marzipan. Not to my personal taste, but pretty well done.

Aug 2, 2008 Cask-conditioned at The Wenlock, 1/8/08. Amber with a slight, off-white head. Fruity malt and nuts aroma. Sweet flavour with plenty of caramel, some grassy hops and a decent bitter finish. Good.
BoozyBugger (15), Glasgow, Scotland
Jul 9, 2008 Tasted at Chelmsford beer festival 08. Rich maltiness with a light hop finish. All in all a decent pint
Ethereal (880), London, Greater London, England
Dec 26, 2007 Gravicask at The Bricklayers Arms Lancashire Fest, 14th Sept 2007. Clear amber with no head. Smells of bubblegum! Brambly with a alcohol kick but ruined by a sickly sweet aftertaste and a clinging palate. I found it foul.
Miksu (1244), Jyväskylä, Finland
Oct 30, 2007 Cask at Akkurat, Stockholm. Golden color. Fruity esters and notes of watermelon in the aroma. Malty, toffeish and honeyish flavor with chewy mouthfeel.
