Vintage 2013. 500ml bottle with box. No fajne ale te 10 lat specjalnie nic nie wniosly. .mozna by je przechowywac jeszcze dluzej jak sugeruje info na kartoniku. Ale 10 lat to i tak sporo. Wyglad to srednia piana, wyglad ladny czerwona mglista intensywna barwa, nie brazowa, ale taka czerwona, jasna. Pachnie truskawkami, poziomka i miodem kwiatowym. W smaku barley wine ale jakies malo intensywne, delikatniejsze niz inne, co nie zmienia faktu ze jest dobre, po prostu czasami inne takie tez fajnie skonsumowac zwlaszcza do deski serow, na ktorej znalazly sie:Pecorino Chilli, Ricotta Salata-Lamercantile i francuski Chabert

Bottle. 2013 vintage. Shared at a neighbour's Hogmanay party 2022/23. Pours clear reddish amber with a thin beige head. Aromas of sherry and nuts, Christmas spice. Taste is light sweet, nutty and fruitcake also. Really nice. Might haved been helped by being under jeevan's floorboards for the last 8 years. Who knows?

500ml bottle [2013 vintage, courtesy of Grumbo, thanks a lot!]. Brown-ish, ruby colour with thin, bubbly, off-white layer. Sweet-ish fruity and malty, minimally vinous aroma, notes of plum and cherry, a touch of dark berries. Taste is sweet-ish malty, notes of almond, fruity hints of plum and cherry, dark berries; minimally chocolately finish. A tad too sweet.
