Old Stock Ale Cellar Reserve 2018

This Cellar Reserve offering, dated 2018, is a strong ale designed for extended aging. Poured deep mahogany with minimal head retention, the aroma suggests complex notes of dried dark fruit—raisins, figs, and prune—layered with caramelized malt and a hint of sherry or port from oxidation. On the palate, the beer delivers a rich, warming mouthfeel, balancing residual sweetness with subtle tannic dryness developed over time. Expect flavors of toffee, molasses, and mature oak, culminating in a smooth, vinous finish characteristic of well-aged vintage strong ales.
