Well stored bottle. Deep red to amber body under a decent tan head. Aroma is malty, toffee, dry fruit and warming alcohol. Taste is sweet and smooth, slightly oxidized in a pleasant way, malt, toffee, caramel, dry fruit, ripe berries, balanced bitterness, and warming alcohol. Full bodied and same aftertaste that lasts for a while. Not very complex really but solid, tasty and balanced. Highly enjoyable.

Aged very well! Barley, raisins, sweet. Very intense, long lingering aftertaste of raisin juice. Something prune'ish too, hint of tobacco? Complex, smooth and beautiful.

Bottle from my cellar. Dark amber pour, kind of copper with some white foam there. Nose is luscious, lots of dried sweet dark fruits, marmalade, bittersweet pleasures. Time has done good to this, taste is nicely blended, still potent with nuances. Tastes fruity, sweet , bitterness, marmalade, some booze. Overall bitterness is dominating but still in good balance. Super good, loving this.

Tap at Speakeasy. Clear deep red colour, small steady white head. Lifghtly oxidized toffee and paper in the nose. Light to medium-bodied. Toffee, berries, cardboard in the flavour. Even hoppy bitterness. Alcohol is not much present. Not aged perfectly but very drinkable.

Almost opaque dark brown - amber beer, good pale tan head. Palate is smooth and softish, reasonable fine carbonation. Rich soft creamy caramel malts, some toffee on the back end. Good ripe fruits blend well. Tangy floral bitter finish. Bitter linger. Rich and tasty.

Aromaty jak z ciemnego belga. Smak jak skrzyzowanie tegoz z english BW. Sporo alko w posmakach. Syropowe nieco. Kandyzowany cukier, melasa
