So much better than 2011 compared; more carbonation, hardly any oxidation...Red hue, sweet boozy nose....Bread with dry fruit, not as bitter, malty flavor combines well with caramelized sugars and oaky notes

Thanks for sharing Johan J. ! Massor av russin och Sirap. Sjukt att den är 8 år gammal med denna smak! Bra tryck från fatet 🥰

Väldigt bra trots sin ålder! Russin, fikon, cola och caramell initialt och en nötighet till avslutning. Nästintill obefintlig kolsyra pga kapsyl. Mycket bra!

Lost a bit. Not surprising. Much better as it warmed.

A marked difference from 2011. The difference can be seen in the caps…2011 bubbled under the seal. 2012 pristine. This beer, after 10 years is delicious and pours clear and bright.

Decade old, old ale at this point lol. Still holds up. Possibly both a year or two past its peak and that period left to still enjoy it. Some dark dried fruit notes, vanilla, sweetness gave way to some earthiness, decent carbonation.

Cellared for 11 years. Minimal carbonation. Smooth flavors of molasses, orange and honey. Better than a bottle of the same vintage drank previously in the past year.
