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

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

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.

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

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

This is what happens when you neglect to make sure you grabbed the right bottle. Flat, chewy, dense....

Dogfish had this 8 yr old bottle on sale. This is a completely different beast. The hops are gone and a barleywine remains

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.

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.

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

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

This is only ok. Hasn't aged nearly as well as the 2007 we opened in 2021. Better as it warms up, a bit of a red ale, malty and sweet but also hoppy.

This didn’t age as well as the 2007 in 2021. More red ale and less apricot jam barleywine. Saving the other bottle for a bit to see if it improves.

Break ya neck boozy nose. Malty AF. This beer is just not for me, regardless of age.

Yikes! Smells and tastes like a barleywine. Hard to believe this started off as an IPA. Pretty undrinkable.

Might have aged a little too long. Prunes and cardboard

I mean, who isn’t drinking 18% beers that are 10 years old on a Wednesday night? Oh, just me?
