Draught at Plan B, 20 years old (1989 apparently), last keg!
Cloudy red-amber color; small head.
Delicate aroma of ripe raspberries, vanilla, flowery cologne, talcum powder. It has a medium body strength; perfect blend of residual sweetness and sourness, with a fresh fruity touch, sweet raspberries in the front and just more aggressive lemon at the end, candies.
After such harmonius flavor, by contrast the palate is more coarse, with citrus tartness and a light obvious astringency.
Perfect. Amazing how it can keep the balance after so many years.

Sampled from a 22 year old keg@Plan B, Copenhagen. Soft carbonated, slightly hazed orangey-brown body. Virtually no head. Very fresh, genuine fruity raspberry aroma. Soft, but distinct fruit flavor. Loads of fresh raspberries, well rounded with a mild fruity tartness and a some discreet sour-sweet tones. Lasting raspberry finish. Very inviting with an amazing freshness.

Draught at plan b. Cloudy dark red colour. Big stable creamy tan head. Fruity berry aroma. Very good acidity, sour but not vinegary. Sweet berry flavour, but very well balanced. Like good sour saftevand.

Hazy brown with a lasting head. Very fruity raspberry aroma. Dry and just slightly tart raspberry flavour. Not very sour or funky, but an incredible fruit flavour, and surprisingly fresh.

On tap at Plan b, 22 years old. Hazy red brown body with a forever lasting off white head. Aroma is sweet raspberries almost syrup like, with slight notes of malt and wood. The flavor is dry, tart and lovely. At first sour raspberries hits the tongue then a dim taste of wood joins in, very smooth and balanced with a long and pleasant aftertaste of raspberries. Simply astonishing of an brew this old !!
