Bottle. #093289. Quite pleasant, not as edgy as the fresh vintages normally is. Toffee, dark dried fruit, apricot jam and a hint of tobacco. Nice indeed. 747415 251128

Очень добротный эль, есть янтарная карамель, патока приятная, умеренная сладость. Некая аристократическая нотка алкогольная на финише.

Faint smell of plum. Copper colour, small beige head. Aroma of sweet malt, dried fruit, some sweet alcohol note. Soft carbon. Sweet. Not the best vintage ale, but still damn solid.

Bottle #089076 direct from the Fuller's webshoppe. It pours clear deep and rich reddish - brown with a bubbly white head. The aroma is sweet and intoxicating, stewed fruits, dried apricot, glace cherry, brandy soaked raisin, light spice, Christmas pudding, cake batter, toasted brown bread, earthy, wood and leather. The taste is fairly smooth upfront, bitter - sweet, toothy, chewy, sappy wood, resin, brown bread, raisin, sultana, glace cherry, candied orange, toasted fruit cake, toffee, some warming booze, toasty spice, leathery and toasted nut with a drying, toasty finish. Medium+ body and moderate carbonation. Enjoyable as ever, perhaps not the depth of previous vintages. Tasty.

5th November 2025
Near clear amber beer, small bubbly cream colour head. Light smooth palate, very slightly viscous, reasonable fine carbonation. Soft caramel and cream. Ripe fruits, ripe pear. Light ripe citrus. Soft pine. Light finish. Just lacks any wow factor, which is a massive come down from the last 2 years.
