This is for the 2001 vintage - dark ruby colour, fine head; huuuuuhhh ... is it ginger I smell here ? God, I don't like ginger ... there are also notes of nutmeg; unbalanced and definitely cough sirup-like, too much carbonation, very bitter, desperately long, whimsical finish with a final, deep, killing touch of ginger - this is indeed a "special" ale !
