Interesting. Hoppiness faded a bit (doesn't taste like 120 IBU), soft. Honey notes up front, turning to mild pine resin, then finishing on white grape/raisin. I'm really digging the layers on this one.

Just had this back-to-back with an ‘09. Surprising how much milder this one is.

Had this 10 years ago for Kalena’s first birthday. Celebrating her number 11 today. Will have to share with her in another decade for #21! 🙂🙃🎂🍻. As to the beer, not much hops left, but boozy and sweet with fig or raisin flavors.

Boozy and malt. Really sticky. This is more barleywine than IPA.

Heavy bodied malty barleywine. Mellowed hop notes. Medium-strong booze notes. 18% mellows nicely.

I think I actually like it fresh. A bit of hop and alcohol bite. Like American barleywine. Some caramel mellowed into this.

There's no good rating for this, so I'm just gonna call it a 4.

Thank you John! Never had a 4 year old 120. It's a beast but so complex. Cereal malts, prune, date, caramel, brandy and toast.

Like barley wine. Biscuit malts, caramel, vanilla, a touch of citrus. Thick and boozy.

Found this one in the cellar. Actually bought this in Elmhurst, IL back in 2016 for a steal. Still hoppy but starting to turn more barley wine like. I have a few more left.

Give it a few years and it takes rubbing alcohol and makes it tasty

Utopias light. Not as harsh as fresh. Still decent hop presence. Malty

Happy long weekend to me! Kinda let this one go longer than planned, but not mad. Hardly any hops left on the nose, rich toffee and fig with some boozy burn.

Thick, syrupy, aged hops and earth. A little wine, a little spirits.
