Very little body left after 9 years cellaring. quite bitter with a tin-flavoured booziness, but on the positive side, still had that aggressive quality you get with special brew (aka “special aggression”)- this way ruin lies.

Definitely enjoyed this one more than the aged Phoenix that B M K. brought to a previous share. Smooth malty chocolatey goodness. Perhaps been left a touch to long but decent drop nonetheless

Docker Beerman: Milan V. Yeah B M K. is pretty good at aging stouts, maybe too good as I think some might have got past their best

Take that wax seal! 9 year old RIS. Super smooth, malty and chocolatey. Not a hint of the 10.6% ABV. Might have left it a bit too long though. Almost missing a bit of interesting roasty character.
David Ayres: Nice looking spread mate - good pairing!
M-I-K-E 2theD: nice - love a good cellaring!

Re-release of this brilliant stout.. Wowee! Magic mix of coffee and liquorice with a touch of malty sweetness. Damn fine.
