Feb 24, 2008 Updated: Apr 25, 2008Bottled (1999 vintage) at Man in the Moon, Stockholm Dark ruby, fne creamy head. Vinous caramelly nose where oxidation and cork also plays a part. Sweet with dense slick nd somewhat oily mouthfeel. There’s overripe cherries, mustard and port. Gently warming alcohol comes through in a finish with esters and paper. An elegant beer that has aged with grace.

Jul 15, 2005 Updated: Jul 17, 2005(Bottle 33 cl) Years ago I had one of these explode in my beer closet while I was away on holiday. Gee, what a mess with the bottle shattered to smithereens. A sad waste... Dark brown and very hazy with a small, light brown head. Extremely full-bodied with loads of roasted malt. Fairly sweet but also with some sour notes - perhaps a bit unusual for it’s style. And extremely treacherous as the extreme alcohol is so well hidden. Almost closert to port wine... 220599

Mar 7, 2005 About 4 y.o. ?; thanks to fiulijn for this one - dark brown colour, the foam quickly disappears, aroma of cork and apple, notes of dust and cellar, touch of acidity, very sweet, medium to full-bodied, long aftertaste of cherry, apple and alcohol - marvelously complex

Mar 7, 2005 Black color. The alcohol nose is dominant. Sweetish, a bit sour, a bit cloying; malt; no hop.
