Aged well, as a hoppy barelywine.

Malty, boozy, less caramel than other vintage years, less rich, still tasty

Someone brought in a single bottle of this last week when I stopped by Old Irving Brewing. It was both strange and delicious. Boozy, malty and the 10-years aging sure did get it reeeeeeeeal smooth.

Benn JaminFay

Wow. Not the color I was expecting. It’s flat but tasty. I wonder how it was stored for the last 10 years.

Pretty, pretty, pretty, good for an 11 year old beer. Rich malty caramelized sweetness. Vintage shelf find at Dogfish Head Brewery.

jim

Pretty much a barleywine at 14 years of aging. Still great flavours. Would prefer fresh.

Justin Morford

Harold

More barleywine than IPA.

Tim Huckaby

Tired of seeing this in the fridge. Held up fairly well. Lost a little fizz of course.

Jeff French

12 years and ages well.

Malty and sweet. Hop profile has diminished, 8 years in a basement will do that.

2012 ooo oooo. So smooth and malty. Strong. Definitely a sipping beer. Purchased at the source.

Jon McCaffrey

Does age well. Maybe best at about the 5 year mark IMO? But this has a great sherry flavor, caramel, little toffee, good warmth at the back end. Not harsh at all. Little thin, definitely mellowed. Worth a taste for sure

Random cellar beer

Larry Abramson

4.4. Excellent! Bourbon front and all the way through. Really mellow and refined.

Jason L.

Jeff Good

Nine years and it’s definitely And obviously on the down slide. Tastes like we are drinking a Barley Wine! Still drinkable!

Todd McD

Greg

Wearthers original. Carmel and butterscotch.

Clint M.

This was the very first bottle that started my beer collection. Drank last night with close friends upon finally finishing the Beeradvocate Top 250 after 10 years of trying. Expected nothing, but damn, it was pretty fookin’ good!

Nick Bigelow

You know, this is pretty good!

Nate

Surprised to still taste some earthy, citrusy, resinous hops in here. Malty toasty biscuity leather caramel joins in too. Its a solid American barleywine

Matthew Fear

Brian Beck

Smooth and rich. Malty and rich with a bit of hops. This has aged well.

Charles McClintock

Wow. Nearly 10 years old and delicious. Rich toffee. A depth that's hard to pick out. Earthy, and a kick of alcohol

Nike Le

Bill Johnson

10 year old brew for 45 years around the sun

Craig B

cellar pull 🎉 10 years old, this aged well! sweet, smooth and malty, still has carbonation, basically a barlywine 🍻

Daniel Horn

Almost like a barelywine, but more floral. Aging for over 10 years did wonders for this. Shared by a stranger at Gordon Street Tavern.

Sara

Caramel notes, fruity, mild hops. Matches my notes from having this bottling 5 years ago.

Jason Voorhees

Thanks Dan !!!

Mike Hyatt

Cellared for 10.5yrs. Minimal carbonation, but who needs it with this beer. Smooth, no bitterness. Tasted like a light barleywine.

Brad McGourty

D Mize

phil gibbs

All the caramel toffee butterscotch you could want

Matt Ly

Did a comparison between a 2022 and 2012. Overall i like the 2012 more but can only have so much. Thanks Greg

DewGen

“2012 B”. Not as clean as 2011. -Monster Malt and less honey…. But much more astringent/ boozy.

Ryan Zeleznik

Very barleywine-ish

Steve I

Tom I

Joe Quinn

11+ years old bottle. Cloudy dark brown. Moved fantastic in the glass before settling flat. Boozy and malty. Fruity. This is shockingly bitter for an 11 year old bottle. Maintained fantastic flavors but this is mostly an experience of malted alcohol.

Brian Merz

11 years old. Drinking very well. Much nicer than a 2018.

Julie Martin

Divine

Bryan Dmuchowski

Damn good at 12 years. Probably time to drink it now though. Happy Super Bowl!

Tony VG

It’s a barleywine now but tastes decent still

Doug Seitz

12 Year old birthday beer! Thanks Harvey

John Westermann

Aged 12 years. Sweeter taste than fresh but good.

Matt Rose

Pam Hill

Timothy M

Delicious at this age.

Dan Hoon

Ages so well.

Nick P.

Dan G

Aging this really takes the bite off of it. I don't even taste any hops. I'd like to pick up a fresh one to compare again, it's been too long since I've had it fresh. But still a great beer.

McKenzie M.

Malty, strong, and slightly sweet. Excellent

Zach Clark

Been savin’ this one for a minute

Marc Gendron

Vertical night at the Summit

Steve F.

Jared P

Good age at this point. Hop and alcohol bite are gone. Malty without tasting musty.
