Commercial Description:
Bottle conditioned.
Brewed with choice malts and an extended top fermentation. This naturally conditioned ale experiences interactions between the robust malt, hop and yeast characteristics, to exhibit an intriguing journey of flavour development over a period of five years when stored under cellar conditions.

A hazy orange beer with an orange head. The aroma is sweet hoppy combined with notes of caramel. The flavor is sweet yeasty with notes of caramel and a dry end, but surprisingly I find the mouthfeel somewhat watery.

2000 vintage: Dark amber with big, airy head. Fruity, malty and full bodied. Sweet and buttery. Rather low bitterness. A complex, subtle, rich ale.

(BOttle 37,5 cl) Unclear, greyish amber and a small off-white head. Weird, indefinable smell - not very pleasant. Some caramel in the flavour and then really nothing much. Quite a disappointment. 160805

Muddy brown. Aroma - banana, vanilla, slight medicinally phenols. Mango, date and passion fruit esters. Yeasty and phenolic palate. Dryish finish shows some alcohol.

37.5 cL bottle, 2007. Pours cloudy deep orange with a creamy off-white head. Dense malt aroma with a note of overripe citrus fruit. Flavour starts sweet malty but soon turns into a more alcohol dense, warming and solid overripe fruit flavour. Ends with a light alcohol bite and quite warming too.
