Level 42 Bottleshare. Thanks to Paul. Hazy amber beer, bubbly cream colour head. Palate is light and semi dry, decent fine carbonation. Thin malts with nice tangy fruits. Some aged must and a little wet wood. Some mild floralness in the light finish. Clearly aged but still enjoyable.

Level 42 Bottleshare. Thanks to Paul. Clear amber beer, tidy cream colour head. Smooth palate, reasonable fine carbonation. To have any is a bonus really! Smooth malts, some caramel but overall it's not that oxidized. Tangy orange and tangerine, a little orange peel. Light finish. Pretty drinkable and in remarkable shape after 34 years.

Level 42 Bottleshare. Thanks to Paul. Clear amber beer, good cream colour head. Light palate, semi dry and amazingly, some decent carbonation. Fluffy malts, light caramel and cream and a trace of toffee. Modest orange peel. A light spicy bitterness. Tangy fruity finish. In very good shape for a 30 year old beer. There is some oxidisation but it doesn't dominate. Stands on it's own as a decent beer without taking into account its age.

Bottle shared in London - many thanks to Scopey. Pours clear copper-gold with some sediment and a small, bubbly head. Interesting aroma, some butterscotch, moderate oxidation, toffee, figs. Medium sweet flavour with slight metallic notes, some marmalade, toffee, toasted pale malts. Medium bodied with soft carbonation. Finishes with some toasted sugars, more toffee, oxidation. So so overall.
