Found 2 bulging 3.3 lb cans of "Munton and Fison Dark Hopped Malt Extract" and 1 lb "Munton & Fison Black Grain Malt" from 1995 stored in the basement at room temperature and Morris Hanbury Fuggles whole hop pellets (also from 1995) stored in a freezer. Decided to make some beer.
Compared it directly to Guinness stout. Carbonated manually with CO2 in 2 liter bottle. Rich mouthfeel for the 23 year-old extract brewed beer. Guinness has a dryer finish of course. 23 yr stout has slightly tangy flavor. Tastes good. No complaints.
