Paul Sammonds: Those barrels keep on popping up at places claiming to have the last one. Enjoy it while it's there.

Possibly one of the last bottles on earth? No sign of a date. But pretty sure i bought in Jan 2023. It was a balancing act as to when to drink, but wanted to make sure i enjoyed it. Happy to report, it it still spot on, RIP a great beer. Cheers

This was wooden cask aged @ 7.5%abv, much enjoyed. I wish they would sell the recipe on to a respectable brewery that would brew without any adjustments

RIP. My last bottle. I remember picking up from brewery door Jan 2023 part of couple of cases and bag in box order and discussing horrendous energy cost rises.😥 BBE 3/24. A bit past its best. Will be consumed and enjoyed. So sticking with old rating.
