If you like barleywine and you've never had an aged 120 minute, you don't know what you're missing. Immediately try it. Second to none. Plums, raisins, figs and the like. Rich caramel. Sweet w/ no bite. If only they barreled this for a couple years...

10-year-old beer for National Beer Day! Still tasting great. Vinous, fruity, tannic, and barleywine-like.

Bottled 9/19/2011 - Almost 10 years young. Still has a light carb and the booze are still present. Nice delicious raisin and tasty 120 classic malt build. First Beer in new house, thought it needed to be something special!

Slightly sweet with a great strong abv. Aged woody flavor of toffee. Amazing flavors just sit on the tounge

Bottled in 2011. Sweet, the hops are gone along with the alcohol finish, it's like a really good brandywine. Wow, if you have some 120, age it, it's worth it.

getting barley wine flavors. Was fun to try next to the 2016 one. Age truly does affect the taste!

.@DogfishBeer Caramel, butterscotch, toffee, malty, hop bite, smooth. Delicious!!! It's been so long, I forgot who gave this to me. Thanks William W.? Dan O.? I'm traded for this and a few other @DogfishBeer beers maybe for a BT? Drinking the cellar!

Little carbonation left; drinks like a barely wine with a buttery finish. Subtle boozy finish.

2011 vintage. Decided it was time for this bottle. And it is wonderful. The sweetness from the malt balances the high abv well. After 11 years, the hop aroma has obviously waned, but some still remains. The hop flavor is still strong.

Deep in color. Dark and caramel in nature. Robust in flavor. Almost port like.

Yep... bottled September 2011. Decided it was time to hit a bit of my vintage stock! It's funny to think how the world (or at least mine) has changed more than the beer has. More bite, I think. Maybe not as smooth. Surprising hop aroma. Aged quite well

Didn't expect 12+ years on a beer to taste so splendid. Started sipping in 2023; finished it in 2024. So smooth!

Sugar packed, nice and tame. The 2017 was boozier than

18 percent in 2011= all the percent today. It’s like a time machine, by the end of it you’re all the way back in 2011, listening to levels in a dingy basement trying not to black out. It’s just a treat.

Ooh, so sweet and toffee like now. When you're stuck inside due to ice, might as well clear the cellar!

What you have here is the holy Grail for hopheads. This beer is continually hopped over a hunderd twenty minute boil and then dry hot for over a month. Enjoy now our age for a decade or so.

From last night. Still has most of its carbonation. Still extremely delicious.

We bought at the source in Rehoboth Beach (out of range now). Had once before, pre-Untappd. Nothing like an IPA. Bailey's mouth feel, bourbon taste. Wow.

Drinking in 2022. Smell is earthy, like beetroot, but not so edgy, a bit of dark fruity sweetness as well. Taste is super rich, deep, plums and chocolate, with more raisiny sweetness. Warming, sweet, port wine notes, with a twinge of hop bite at the end.

"Enjoy now or age for a decade or so" well this is certainly a decade or so, and it is tasting more than alright. Flavorwise closer to a Bigfoot than Pliny, but it is great. First night of a solo verticle through 16/17

10 years. Incredible. Nice little sweetness to it and wasn’t as heavy as I originally had thought.

A friend gave me this 10 year old 120. Asked if I thought it would still be good. Indeed it has aged well!
