DrSilverworm (11039) - Cincinnati, Ohio, USA - MAR 25, 2021UPDATED: MAR 25, 2021 [Uploaded from backlog - 7/18/18] 500ml bottle, thanks to alexsdad06 for sharing. Good bit of age on this one -- 2005 on the label. Interesting malty nose, like the aged JW Lees / Tom Hardy's english strong ales I've tried. Sherry, alcohol, dark fruit, caramel in the nose, definitely a strong, interesting smell. Bigger sweet taste. Definitely big raisin. Not as cloying sweet as some old old ales I've tried. Little warmth on the back end. Bigger, round body, sort of velvety. Little if any carbonation. Mild slick, but not sticky. Not bad, a lot better than I would expect a 13 yr old beer to be. This sort of flavor and character may be cherished by some. It's not what I prefer, but I can respect what it is..
