fiulijn (7150), Como; Lausanne (CH); Malmö (SWE), Italy Aug 4, 2009 Draught at Plan B, 20 years old (1989 apparently), last keg! Cloudy red-amber color; small head. Delicate aroma of ripe raspberries, vanilla, flowery cologne, talcum powder. It has a medium body strength; perfect blend of residual sweetness and sourness, with a fresh fruity touch, sweet raspberries in the front and just more aggressive lemon at the end, candies. After such harmonius flavor, by contrast the palate is more coarse, with citrus tartness and a light obvious astringency. Perfect. Amazing how it can keep the balance after so many years. bager (2121), Copenhagen N, Denmark Jun 1, 2009 On tap @ Plan B from a 22 year old keg. Pours cloudy and brownish red in colour. Very nicely balanced and tart with notes raspberries, fruit, wood, balsamico and a faint hint of almonds and marcipan.

Hazy red brown body with a forever lasting off white head.
Aroma is sweet raspberries almost syrup like, with slight notes of malt and wood.
The flavor is dry, tart and lovely. At first sour raspberries hits the tongue then a dim taste of wood joins in, very smooth and balanced with a long and pleasant aftertaste of raspberries.
Simply astonishing of an brew this old !!
