Ansells Silver Jubilee Strong Ale (1977)





Original review: 
Wow! This is the reason I drink vintage ales. This is stunning. Absolutely spanking. There's a whiff of cardboard which does translate into the taste, but that's the only off-note - and it's very minor. The main flavour is dark chocolate - creamy, liquid chocolate and port. Clearly a robust ale, there is a clear awareness of alcohol, and some beautiful fumes. Wow! One of the best vintage ales I've had in a very long time! This is heaven. I want some more!!!!!!!!!!!!

RateBeer review:
I love this beer. I have had it several times since first experiencing it in 2010. It is one of my favourite vintage beers, and can be picked up reasonably cheaply from eBay or RoyalBeers. Lots of malt character with deep chocolate notes.
