The Dingle 8UP Founding Fathers Bottling boasts a beautiful amber color, with sweet aromas of sherry and sulfur at first nosing. The nose is dominated by notes of shoe polish and sherry with sulfur, with some fruity aromas of raspberry syrup in the background. The taste is sweet and oily, like a liqueur at first mouthfeel, with powerful sherried and spicy notes of pepper and ginger, accompanied by sulfur. Strong notes of shoe polish and licorice are also present. The finish is long and dry, with licorice and strong unpleasant notes of sulfur coming up, leaving a bitter and spicy sulfured aftertaste.
