Description
Fullers Vintage Ale – 1997 – Very RARE First Year produced and has been kept in a wine cellar since 1997.

With the original box and in excellent condition.

If you want 2 - one to show and one to go (to drink) - let me know I will combine shipping ($20) and offer a 20 % discount on the second bottle ($180 per set +$20 shipping). However the second bottle will be one with a less than perfect outer box. A few boxes show some moisture marks from being in the high humidity of the cellar.

From the Fullers website – listed at £515.00 or about $695.66 USD

Whether it’s a car or a kiss, firsts live long in both the memory and the heart. This 1997 beer was the first in our Vintage Ale collection – and as it’s brewed to mature over the years, it’s a memory that can still be savoured even now. Dark and rich with a fruity aroma, this 1997 vintage develops a taste that hints at brandy. All of our Vintage Ales are very special bottle conditioned beers. We’ve created a new recipe every year since 1997, picking the best ingredients at the time, to make a strong beer with a complex character.
Our Vintage Ales are crafted to be enjoyed on the day they’re released, but because of the yeast that we include in the bottle, it will continue to condition well beyond its official ‘best before’ date. This second fermentation results in a more complex character and a flavour profile that will change over time.
Every bottle of Vintage Ale is individually numbered, representing its part in the limited run in which we brew these beers. Many of our older Vintage Ales are extremely rare, but still much sought after as they represent the pinnacle of Fuller’s brewing in that year.
The price of our Vintage Ales will increase over time as the number of remaining bottles reduces, so the price you see today may be higher tomorrow.

Rare Vintages
When stocks of a Vintage Ale are almost entirely depleted, most of what’s left is kept in our secure cellar for future generations. However, because of the popularity of the beer, we have made a small number of bottles available for the connoisseurs of our Vintages. These will be much more valuable than the rest of the range because there are so few remaining. You can identify these Vintage Ales as they will include ‘RARE’ in the product name. How to enjoy your Vintage Ale
We recommend that your Vintage Ale is served at cellar temperature (11-13oC) in a wide rimmed glass that allows you to enjoy the aromas as you sip it. The Fuller’s Connoisseur Glass has been designed for this, but a large wine glass is a suitable alternative.
Make sure that you’ve allowed the bottle to settle upright for at least 72 hours if it has been transported recently. Open the bottle and pour the beer slowly into a glass held at an angle. Slowly straighten the glass as you pour. To avoid sediment entering the glass, stop pouring before reaching the bottom of the bottle. If you prefer a smaller head on your beer, wet the inside of the glass before pouring.
Enjoy your Vintage Ale either on its own, or to accompany warming winter dishes such as stews or pies. It is also an excellent alternative to port when eating cheese. We think its best enjoyed with friends and family, with some customers maintaining a tradition to taste a range of Vintage Ales at Christmas. However you choose to drink your Vintage Ale, we hope you enjoy it.
