Huge thanks to quack-duck for that one! Bottle looks simple but good. Beer in the glass deep black, small head. Fine roasty malty aroma. Starts intense malty, roasty, liquorice notes. Some smokey hints as well, light sweetish background. Finish well balanced. Soft-malty finish. Nice!

Bottle at Ratebeer tasting at Daves, Friday 4th February 2022. Pours hazy light amber with a white head, sweetness initially, you can taste the age, a little fruity edge, it's good.

Bottle (2L) from my brother in law at Christmas when the RHG was 500y old. It's vintage! Nice light-hazy gold, foamed over at opening, slightly funky sweet/grain nose but smells nice. Raisins, honey, lemon poundcake biscuit. Really tasty and more interesting than I thought!

2l bottle (old, 1516 anniversary edition). Gusher. Unclear golden color with white head. Aroma is canned peach, a bit dusty, fruitcake. Taste is honeycake, candied fruits, a bit sweet but really juicy too. Thick oily mouthfeel with lively carbonation. Pretty nice, I might like this old bottle better than a fresh one.

Huge thanks to quack-duck for that one! Bottle looks simple but good. Beer in the glass with a nice head. Fresh hoppy-spicy aroma. Starts mild, malty, modest dry. Shy floury notes, background moldy-malty. A bit grasy. Finish well balanced, spicy-malty. Not bad.
