Still a little carb on it. Having had this a couple of times before I will say this has held up very well. Malty, sweet, honey, toffee, with just the slightest hint of a copper off flavor. Some things just age well ❤️👑

A friend gave me this a few years ago... Surprisingly clear! Boozy aroma, and tastes like Christmas cake/pudding - Rich dark fruit, sweet, brandy(ish). Quite malty too! #TheStayInn #VirtualPub #NBT #BadgeCap

Almost blue cheese on nose and a little too much umami on taste to keep this being truly enjoyable, but still had really nice malty body to make this a super fun birth year tick. Thanks Shu!

It may have been better at some point, but for a 43 year old beer to hold up with very minimal oxidation, and some discernible dark fruit characters after all these years just amazes me. Well done!
