5 year old bottle. 3/7/18. Held up great, bite is gone, booze is soft but highly effective, nice!

Pulled from my personal cellar collection. Sad to open it, but so worth the pour.

9-14-18 date 5 years aged is a good starting point for me. Not a big fan of this beer right out of the gate. Malty and sweet but not overly cloying. High ABV burn has faded this is enjoyable and 55 degrees out!!!

Last of the four pack. Nose is a combo of figs, toffee, and rocket fuel. Drinks much, much smoother, though. Of note, this bottle is from the 17.1% batch for the vintage, since they seemed to vary.

Oh my really awesome! Yes, a bit boozy and hoppy but smooth and flavorful.

Whoo! Definitely a sipper. Thick, sweet, resinous, complex. Aged 6 years.

Wowza. First thoughts are moderate heat and black licorice. Still has some bitterness and none of the typical “old IPA” off notes. Some Cracker Jack notes in there as well. Heat persists, but is not overwhelming. Still some floral notes left.

Let's see how well this aged... Update...it hasn't seemed to change, though it seems a little hotter than the 2023.

Just a huge beer. Sort of reminds me of an American Barleywine like Bigfoot at this point. Resinous and piney and sticky and lingering for ages. Can't wait to see what more years in the cellar will do to it. Very complex. Still as hoppy as a normal IPA.

Left this bottle for another year. Still great but don't think it developed much. Definitely more of a barleywine.

Killer. Boozy and hoppy, ABV punches you right in the face. Love this.

After having the 2016 and seeing the potential for aging, I find this to be lacking but it’s 1/20 after all so I had to. Here’s to 2024.

Hop bomb but malt sweetness definitely there to try to create a balance. Boozy and thick. Very tasty but very much a beer to sip and enjoy.

03/22/18. Just about 3 years old and delicious. Covid makes it hard to share beer and I usually buy 2 cases of Dogfish danger cap beers every year. Now I have to drink them by myself. I mean I'm complaining but I'm not complaining, you know?
