1999
In 1999 Neo Nazi David Copeland was terrorizing London with nail bombs, the world was looking forward with trepidation to the coming millennium, the absolute dross that is ‘Shakespeare In Love’ was taking out an Oscar, bombs were falling on Kosovo, Labour took control of the New Zealand Parliament, I was in my first year at University, Fulham achieved promotion to the Premiership and Fullers were brewing one hell of a beer.

I've got a bottle of it from around this date - at what point do you drink it?
It's always a dilema: keep or drink.
10 years is probably a good target. I just had the 2002 and it was good but not as fantastic as the 99. incniq
Yes, Shakespeare in Love was toss.
There's something a bit poignant about all these vintage ales being drunk. When you'd finished, and had the time of your life, did you think "I wish I had saved that"?
Seize the day and all that, I guess.
