Bottle, vintage 2002. Best before Jan 07. (drank it on December 9, 2010) Brownish with a minimal head. Also sediment in the glass. "Dusty" with some cardboard, but also caramel, nuts and dried fruits. Nonexistent carbonation, thin mouth feel. An interesting experience, one can say. Old but still quite drinkable.
