Fantôme Santé 5 from 2002
My current go-to beers are mostly fresh lagers, so some of my other bottles have been chilling underground for a little while now.

Currently 1988. Oldest I’ve had and tasted 1902. Would be willing negotiate a seat at any tasting with an 1869 Ratcliff. That is something at the top of my wants list.

Last year I found an ’82 Cantillon Framboise to have on my birthday. Better than I expected and would like to find another Cantillon from that year.

Beauty, eh! The batch 1 release at the Horse Brass was epic.

I’ve got two magnums (or whatever they are) of the first Doggie Claws from 2001. I figure they’re probably two of very, very few to be found on this continent.

WOW nice !!! did you allready taste one ? or u only have that bottle ...


Got one left that lived at the brewery until the 1950s and was then kept my an ex employee until he passed away. Saving for a special occasion. Tasted one previously - Monster beer, salty, fruity old beast. An acquired taste but I love it.


Nice !
