Pours a dark amber/rub color with a white head. Definite aroma of malts, caramel, fruit and "sweet" and a little alcohol. Tastes nice with a little alcohol aftertaste. Definitely will drink again.

Great stuff! Very smooth caramel maltiness. Has great balance and texture. Alcohol presence is not overwhelming.

96 vintage. pour is rusty brown with no head. Aroma...sugary sweet with cherries, caramel and some leather/ earthy thing going on. Flavor is very sweet, but has a decent finish that saves it a little. Not bad.

Two year old bottle courtesy of BigErn. Pours a ruby brown in color with absolutely no head showing on the pour. Smell is highly malty and just a bit of boozey flavors. This is surprisingly good being well aged for a couple of years. This is surprisingly pretty good. Didn’t expect this. Thanks!
