1980 version, tasted @ Kulminator, september 9th 2006. Aroma and flavor have porto, cherry juice and a very soft malt character. Has lost all its carbon, but not its bite. Caramel, lemon and cherry in the flavor. The alcohol remains totally unnoticed. Absolutely great beer.
Bottle - pours dark brown - nose/taste of toffee, maple, raisin, oud bruin, caramel - med body.
Sample now 37 yrs old, perfectly preserved No head left; deep ruby tinted brown beer. Lactic acid, touch of acetic (Rodenbach yeast!), wood, vinous, fishsauce, balsamico, yoghurt, sangria with tapas. Wonderful. Sweetish, sour, lactic, milkchocolate, old wine. Thinner than it used to be, but still slick, some alcoholheat. 37 years ago, it used to be one of my all-time favourites, and it still turns out great. Up to 10, 12 years ago, this beer might have well earned 4.8/4.9 on 5. 9/4/8/4/17 Abject thanks to Stef!
