On tap@Plan B, Copenhagen (around about 15 years old sample). Unbelievable how balanced this is given the age. Amazingly there is some sweet (and quite fresh) framboise at the front of the tongue, it the quickly turns to a slightly sour, tart palate, with some aged mustyness/woodyness, nice dry finish, and very moreish, something i could have sat down and drank all day, if it wasn’t so expensive, delicious.

Draught @ Plan B, Vintage 1989 : Amber coloured. Unclear. Not much head, but it sure looks beutiful anyway. The nose is almost perfect. Full of fruits and some sour notes. Not so earthy as the really sour one, but still classy. Flavour is very fresh, acidic and fruity. There is a citric sourness the perfectly matches the fruitsweetness. Has a delicious full and complex body. Is dry, sweet and light sour in the end. Is very refreshing and cleansing. This is a tough one to beat.
Bottled, Vintage 1989 (9,4,9,4,18): Orange/light red coloured. Dusty. Light beige impressive head. Raspberries, sweetness and other fruitnotes in the aroma. Is light citric . Flavour is fruity with a subtle sourness underlying. Light spiced. Very smooth and balanced. Has a nice sourish fruitflavour in the end. Refreshing. Looking forward to try this from tap at Plan B.

18yo keg at Plan B. Copenhagen, Denmark. Red-amber; carrot colour. Very fruity and rather sour with clear raspberry-flavour. Notes of carrot (recording to my company).

(Sampled from a keg, dated 1989, at Akkurat, Stockholm, Sweden) Hazy pink-red appearance with a small creamy white head. Wonderful fruity and natural aroma of raspberries...only raspberries and that’s just fine! Semi-dry and very clean flavour of raspberries, vanilla with a elegant tart note. Dry finish of raspberries with notes of mild tea and vanilla.

Pink colour. Acidic aroma with raspberries, vanilia and complex notes of spontaneous fermentation. Almondy flavor with tones of raspberry, old wood and cherries. A certain amount of acid is surely present too. The coolest thing about this beer is that it´s available on tap from a keg that is 15 years old.

1989 wonderfully fruity & rich complexity, balanced with the sour texture of this no more beer.

[15 year old tap] Nice reddish brown color with a nice pinkish head. The taste is sweet with strong notes of raspberries. Has a nice complex pattern of sourness and spices. Thanks Jacob and Martin...
