mds (2112), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Jun 22, 2006 Bottle. 1998 vintage. Bright copperish-tawny coloured body with a medium white bubbly head. The aroma is moderately cheesy, lots of bread, and sweet caramel-like malts. Certainly the rich malts are prominent in this beer - lots of bread, some sourish malt, and sweet caramel flavours. Soft, creamy palate. Pretty good.
Thanks for sharing this, Doug. Radek Kliber (3942), Toronto (Can) Krotoszyn (Pol), Ontario, Canada Jun 12, 2006 Vintage 1998. Amber with bright white head indicating hoppy character. Rich, juicy malts, woody character and light hoppy nose. Gentle alcoholic touch molding malty richness. Medium bodied, with some bitterness at finish. Very neat aged mellow ale. Solid.

Golden coloured and strong in alcohol with some hoppiness. Crisp malt finish. Papsoe (14791), Frederiksberg, Denmark Nov 22, 2005 (Bottle 50 cl) Vintage 1999. Reddish brown with a dissipating head. Very refined and complex brew with a vinous touch and some nutty, port-like notes. 231000 Jeppe (2638), Ølbutikken, Denmark Dec 4, 2004 Pours a tall airy tan head on a slightly hazy amber colored body. Aroma is malty and spicy with a roasted tone and hints of alcohol. Plenty of malt in the flavor. Notes of fruit, raisin, prune, hop and liquorice. Some sourness in the end. Tasty but rather thin bodied. imdownthepub (5118), Banbury, Oxfordshire, England Jun 28, 2004 Bottled, pasteursed. Golden amber with restained head. Understated fruity sweetish beer with a caramel base. Almost port like in character with a late hoppiness. rlgk (3377), Vårgårda, Sweden Dec 21, 2003 Golden with a nice and creamy head.
