Oak, malt, light sherry, berries & sweet fruity tastes with a long whisky finish. Amazing this stored to well for 13 years.

Fyldig i smagen og en rigtig god eftersmag. Måske lidt dyr, men så er den smagt.

500ml bottle I’d had hanging around for a while. Pours amber with a white head. Aroma of malt, orange and pepper. Sweet finish.

The foam is flashy, but decreases after a short time a sparse layer on top of the beautiful beer. The aroma is very delicate, but also very diverse. I can trace plum and apricot, but other noses can certainly get many more impressions. With a strong ale like this I think there are not very clear rules for how it should taste, so here Fuller ’s, Smith & Turner had the opportunity to apply their expertise in full, and it’s actually been a wonderful beer out of it. The taste is very rich and has a part acid probably from the oak cask. The aforementioned fruit that characterizes the very beginning, but little sugary sweetness carries it over into an easy taste of alcohol where caramel and clear whisky notes are present. I’m not sure of mine two years of storage was enough. However, I believe that it will mature even more over the years and become a little more round and soft. Unfortunately I have no more bottles than this. The finish is long, marked by whisky and only light hop. A delicate and tasty beer after two years of storage, but with large potential to be better if you have the patience.

tommann (7123) - Stourbridge, West Midlands, ENGLAND - JUL 20, 2015
500ml bottle. Pours dark brown with a thin head. Aroma is rich toffee, treacle, molasses and woody whisky. Taste is caramel and toffee to start with a light whisky finish.
