Can from Drankenhandel Leiden. Aroma is caramel, malt, toffee, almond, wood, spicy rum, raisin, notes of dark fruits from the port, some brown sugar, and a little alcohol. Flavour is sweet with a mild bitterness and a little booze. Body is full. Very delicious, mostly rum with a subtle touch of port. Lovely smooth BA from Kees after a very shaky 18 series.

0.33 l can from 'Ace Drinks', best before August 2023. Clear, very dark ruby with a thin, frothy, almost stable, beige head. Sweetish-malty, slightly fruity aroma of molasses, raisins, prunes, some rum, a touch of vanilla and traces of red berries. Fairly sweet, malty, a bit fruity taste of molasses, rum, vanilla, raisins and prunes, followed by a long, moderately bitter, gently warming and a bit boozy finish. Medium to full body, oily mouthfeel, very soft carbonation. Very well-balanced, nice barrel-aging, one of the better Kees BA beers for sure.
