Apperance: The beer is hazy dark amber, with a tan head leaving good lacing. Some curtains. (4)
Aroma: Vinous smells, Madeira, sweet dried fruits, nuts and cereal. (4)
Taste: An upfront sweetness, dark bread, dried fruits, some bitter notes. (4.5)
Palate: Medium low carbonation, complex body, a dry finish. (4)
Overall: This was the 2008 version which were much better than the 2009 bottled one I tried last year. Less hops, more mature. Proves that ageing improves these beers. (4)
