Fresh, caramelish head. Solid, full body with lots of caramel and some lightly perfumy, fruity notes. Lightly hoppy finish.

| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Apr 13, 2006 Vintage 2002. Served in a Duchesse De Bourgogne goblet. In retrospect, the glass was quite appropriate. Oxidation is very apparant. Nose is that of caramel and sour fruits. Very similar in taste to a Belgian sour brown ale...it really reminds me of a Liefman’s Goudenband. I’m a fan. I wish this wasn’t retired as I’d love to drink one approaching its peak. peter (385), Dallas, Texas, USA

Plummy and figgy with some oxidized sherry notes. Small turpentine and acrid notes. Sweet and light fruit. Some pepper hops on the finish. Pailhead (2583), Allen Park, Michigan, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Mar 6, 2006 Bottle (11/2/02, Batch 4) : Courtesy of DarkElf via trade. Aroma of bourbon, vanilla, toffee, and hints of fruit. Vinuous aromas are there too, but I didn’t notice until I actually tasted the strong vinuous flavors. Initially pours a cloudy reddish-brown, but as you get towards the bottom of the bottom, it just becomes a cloudy brown. Small off-white head. Quick caramel and toffee is quickly overtaken by a strong vinuous flavor that contains moderate sourness. Lots of woodiness in the finish. Even though this isn’t bourbon barrel aged, there is a bourbon character to the flavor. Light vanilla lingers throughout in the background. A tad thin. Kinz (2202), Glen Allen, Virginia, USA

Deep brown, hint of amber, surprisingly actually had some head after all these years. Huge aromas of caramel and dark fruit. The mouth is filled with raisins, currants, molasses, caramel, and some piney remnants of hops. The finish has an oaky, winey note to it. Fantastic. Sampled at the first Richmond "gathering." maniac (2628), Richmond, Virginia, USA
