2005 bottle, gold wax cap. Nice boozy nose under the cap. Tawny brown color, very brief fizz. Nothing has gone off in 20 years, it's got a nice alcoholic nose, some fruitiness and strong malt, with no oxidation. Taste offers more of that strong abv, some fruity ale, and a, well, normal mouthfeel. Actually starts to get a little watery, but not enough to be a distraction.

Bottle. Aroma was of a watery, fruity, caramel nature. Color was a deep golden with a quickly disappearing head. Flavor was like a flowery candy corn.
