12/21/18 - Fantastic beer, always does well with some cellaring. Complex dried fruit flavor with lots of malt. Really a tasty beverage.

Damn that is good and exactly what I need right now! After a devastating loss… Damn nice beer!  Malty, sweet, and definitely a lot of raisins. I just wish it was a little bit boozier…Lol!

This aged wonderfully. Less bossiness, all grapiness. Truly, Dogfish knows what they’re doing.

As much as I love this beer, it’s with heavy heart that this beer causes to have migraines. Like wtf? Why this beer? Wish Miller Lite did instead. Please beer gods take that away, not Raison D’Extra.
