Bottle shared at the ChrisO Flags of Many Nations Easter Tasting 2013 - London. Pours clearish amber-russet with a fine, creamy head. Rich toffee in the nose, ripe dried fruits. Big sweet flavor with rich bread, hints of vanilla, light booze, dried plums, dates, some earth. Full bodied with fine to average carbonation. Warming finish with light vinous dryness, more ripe semi-dark fruits. Rich and warming but not too sweet or boozy. Excellent work.
