I have been lucky enough to have a few glasses (different years), as they make it every two years. There is no carbonation to it as its very much like a cognac and sipped...it is actually very smooth. I think a big piece is your paying for the copper kettle it comes in, which is kinda cool in itself.

I can agree with that, just trying to put this into perspective. There are plenty of wines and liquors in this price range, so why not a beer? It's for a totally different market than people buying a case of Bud at their local supermarket (analogous to the Black & Mild crowd).

I could buy a bottle of top shelf whisky, tequilla, and vodka and get F'd up for a week!
