Nice thick light tan head with quickly fading lace. Strong nutty portish, toffee nose. Rich and sweet, notes of chocolate candy, carmel that lingers for minutes and finishes dry. Nice complexity. This sample is alot better than the one I had a couple years ago.

Feb 7, 2006 Cloudy, tan with light head. Hazelnut and toffee nose with a lot of nut aromas. Chocolate toffee taste with a smooth finish. The sweetness lingers on the back of your tongue.

Jan 29, 2006 Nice presentation in a strangely-sized bottle, but I think it’s sat a little too long. Definite caramelly-ness and crystallized sweetness with nice notes of allspice and cinnamon and also a sour vinousness. Palate was slick but a little thin.

Pours with decent CO2, especially for the age. Smells of rich British barleywine malt, slightly winey. Tastes great, little or no oxidation. Like a vintage Lees Harvest Ale, maybe not quite as good though. From other recent reviews, this may be one of the few to survive the journey.

Dec 12, 2005 Thanks to Eyedrinkale for bringing this to the Yeha. Poured a murky amber with an off-white head. Sweet caramel and apple spice aroma. Taste is sweet cinnamon and cloves, chalky. Not bad.
