Flavors flat and a bit off. Thin body, waited too long. Just a touch of strawberry, no vanilla or chocolate which is odd.

Enjoyed at Cedar Breaks State Park. Zero carbonation and otherwise flawless. Reminded me of JW Lee's ales. Raisin popping through on nose and palate. Big body to match the sweetness. Absolutely loved this.

Good for a lower abv imperial. Pours black with quick disappearing head. Touch of vanilla, cocoa nibs coming in as well and likey bringing some bitterness. Lower body not conducive to aging much longer.

Incredibly rich, black, low carbonation. Coconut is dominant on nose and palate, strawberry quite hidden. Base stout is extra body, near dessert level.

Falling in flavor with some improvement with air time.

After some air it drank amazingly. Big body, very minor difference from new. Boozy and delicious.

Enjoyed at HCBS #17 before a 2022. Wow, this one continues to hold up great! Was the favorite of the two hands-down. Bigger body and more complex.

A bit disappointed on this one. Heavy mold on the cap but no infiltration on seal. Good flavor up front but finish not as good as others in this year.

Somerset dove camp. Great with some signs of oxidation.

At Gulpha Gorge campground fireside. Simply wonderful as usual.

Nose: chocolate, fig, dark cherry. Taste: Boozy, brighter flavors. Body: Much smoother, more carb.

Needed air for 10 min then spectacular

Great ale at Black Gap WMA

A bit medicinal, hot, boozy. Very good but not the best bottle in this vintage.

Another great bottle. I have to search for oxidation. Tremendous!

Doing great

Enjoyed as opening beer at HCBS #23. Ivan bottle. Good grape flavor made it seem to be wine barrel aged.

2 years old and very good. Grape notes very present. Rosemary has dropped significantly. Overall excellent balance of tartness and flavors.

Enjoyed at HCBS #23. Lighter body than expected and not sweet. Cocoa nibs adding a bitter note.

Enjoyed at Acopon during Founders Day. Great barrel and a bit caramel. Not a standard tripel but very good.

Enjoyed at Acopon during Founders Day. Held up incredibly well. Raspberry coming through, chocolate present. Not getting and off flavor. Sweet but not overly. Very good

Very good, seems dryer than fresh. Some chunks at bottom.

Doing very well. Good coffee notes, good finish.

Still big on coffee. Drier than I recall. Excellent.

Coffee prominent. Barrel wood but not not much bourbon. Great overall.

Enjoyed with Patrick, Chad Phillips, and his buddies Chad and Justin. Loved by all. Rich flavors.

Enjoyed with Patrick at MotoGP. Past prime for sure. I think it would have been great.

Enjoyed at HCBS #22. Respectable with minor flaws. Big body and enjoyable.

Enjoyed at HCBS #22. Mostly flat but flavors amazing. Fruit coming through strong on a balanced sour ale.

Enjoyed at HCBS #22. Solid Russian Imperial Stout. Big dark and having the expected deep roasted malt, chocolate, anise with big body.
