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

Toasting a #billsmafia return to the playoffs with a cellar selection and wedding gift from Mike S. Thanks, buddy. This was your best idea possibly ever.

Definitely gone through some considerable changes over the years, and I think sadly past it’s prime. Mellow carb, mild sweet maltiness, herbal notes with a decent alcohol/ethanol finish.

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

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

8 years later, strong and mellow, any hint of harshness is long gone. Now it’s like a fine port.

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

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.

Been aging this one for 8 yrs. Amazing! The boozy taste is mellowed out

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