2007 vintage bottle shared at Novi November share. Thanks superspak! Pours a clear honey gold color with no head. Some dark splotches that are present and suspended in the gold colored beer. Not sure if they are proteins or what, but it doesn't look appealing. Nose is solid with honey, grain and lots of caramel notes. Smooth and effortless drinking on the palate. Booze does come out as it warms, but nothing out of line for the style. A bit thin and watery but still somewhat enjoyable. 12 years might a bit too old for this vintage to be honest.
