High Wycombe House Warming. Thanks to Paul for this antique. Lightly hazy amber beer no real head. Palate is smooth and dry, modest carbonation. Oxidised caramel. Ripe fruits. Smooth finish. Shows it’s age but doesn’t lack for flavour.

Bottle courtesy of maniac, thanks! Cloudy reddish color. Aroma of tannic plums. Aroma of boozy heavy spice, tons of tannins. Weird.
