Volgon (2487), Manchester, New Hampshire, USA Dec 31, 2001 The taste seemed old, almost metallic. I then noticed this bottle expired almost 52 months ago. D’ohh! Always look at the bottle before buying it. mike mcneil (660), St Augustine, Florida, USA Oct 24, 2000 This is an expensive import that really didn’t impress me a whole lot. A bit thin, reserved and too fizzy for the style. Beef up the malt profile a bit and we may have something. Sam Smith’s or Younger’s Oatmeal much better.
