500 ml bottle - Pours deep amber with a thin head. The aroma is very malty with some dark fruit notes. The flavor is malty, perhaps lightly roasted, with a good hops balance and coffee notes coming through more in the moderately bitter finish. It reminds me a little bit of a lighter version of the Vintage 2001 I had. The body seems just a touch too watery. This is pretty good. I was worried about it because it has a best before date of Mar 8th, 2004, but it’s held up well.

500ml bottle. Richly toffeeish, toasty malt aroma, sweet and lightly herbal, with tinges of spice, golden raisin, apricot, caramel, dried flowers and a faint nuttiness. Deep red-orange color, lightly hazy, with a lasting, creamy, off-white head leaving a fine pattern of lace. Flavor is predominantly malty, prominent dark brown sugar and toasted grain bread combine with suggestions of date, anise, citrus and wood, seeing a late influx of gentle, spicy bitterness and hop flavor. Smooth and finely effervescent palate, body is medium. Quite flavorful and nicely balanced.

Pours maroon and clear with a medium sized lasting beige head. Smell is biscuity, slightly tart malt. Taste is surprisingly hoppy compared to the nose with dark bready and caramel malt flavor to accompany the hops. Slightly full bodied and crisp yet soft carbonation. Pretty balanced and drinkable with a nice mild hop character. Pleasantly surprised.

A medium dark brown pour with a tan head. The initial aroma was brown sugarish, hints of spice with malt and light abv. A flavor that reminds me of raisins, lightly sweet with a fine light bitter finish. Carbonation and mouth feel are pretty close. Very good beer it took me a long time to get around to drinking.

Pours a medium/dark amber color. Strong aroma. Sort of a roasted toffee sort of a thing going on. Maybe a little ginger or something. Nice full mouthfeel. Lots of roasted maltiness. Pretty much seems to be pure roastiness. I like it like that.
