(Bottle 35,5 cl) Courtesy of Degarth. Vintage 2004. Pours an unclear amber golden with a bubbly, off-white head that dissipates completely in no time. Fat aroma of caramel and overripe fruit. Full-bodied with plenty of sweet caramel notes, overripe fruit, herbs and toffee. Has a slight touch of hops in the finish. Quite lovely really and seems to get better with age. 250308

Bottled. An unclear dark amber beer with a rim of orange head. The aroma is acidic malty combined with notes of wood - I thought it had been barrel-aged. The flavor is slightly acidic with strong notes of over ripe fruits as well as lighter notes of wood. Thanks Papsoe for sharing.

From bottle, 10A Papsoes New Zealand vs US blind tasting. Pours hazy orange with no head. Dense fruity and alcohol aroma. Light oxidised aroma. Flavour is dark sweetish and malty. Solid caramel note and a woody dry flavour. Ends dry, bitter and warming alcohol. Mild spiced note. Very solid flavour. A bit oxidised.

Bottled, vintage 2004
Hazy nut brown-red color, no head. Malty-chocolaty and also very barley-wineish aromas. Hard stuff, not very easy to drink: smoked ham, vanilla liquer and caramel. Barley wine kind of roasted. Liquerish palate. Just too simple BW without any character.

Bottled (2004 vintage, thanks jjpm74!). Amber colour, not much head. Aroma is plum, raisins, alcohol as well as some wood and vanilla. Flavour is vanilla, wood, oak, caramel malts, alcohol and a bunch of raisins. Also some strange licoriceish raisiny notes. Quite sweet brew, good for sipping, but not for drinking any faster at all. Wellbalanced.

Big thanks to jjpm74 for the bottle. Looks incredible. The beer in the glass is okay, no foam. Starts really strong, very malty. The finish is too bitter, I think. Not very drinkable. Only an average beer!
