Vintage Ale hits the spot@
"It's difficult to express how delicious this pokey 8.5% Vintage Ale is. A great brown glow greets the drinker from the glass, and the warmth of that first sip explodes with flavour with a good balance of hops and malt. This is a sitting down at home beer! One should be enough, but two certainly are! I've just finished the 2024 case - which improved in depth even in the short while it resided in my cupboard. The 2025 is just as good, of course, so I've bought 2 cases!"

"Very attractive aroma and flavourful ale to be sipped and savoured rather than gulped, of course. On my pallet, slightly more bitter than Golden Pride which is my favourite though ESB is a strong contender as an alternative lighter ale accompanying the evening meal."
