7.5 years was worth the wait. Delicious and so smooth now. Glad I have the other 3 from the pack to age a few more years. Cheers

Don't know if I needed to hold onto this for 8 years, but still pretty damn tasty.

The bronze color and initial sweetness are noticed at first sip. As the 18% IPA warms up the hops and the high IBU Become dominant. Great aged imperial IPA.

Draft pour, musty old smell with hops underneath, went away on the palate, monster beer and I love the old 120s

Barleywine like qualities in the nose, those sickly sweet notes starting to develop into sherry like aroma, berry, still a little hoppiness but has died considerably, slight pine, boozy as all hell, starting to develop some floral lavender and juniper

So much malt flavor. Drinking really well. It has been too long since I last had one of these.

Great ultrasound today! Enough of a reason to bust a 🐋 out of the cellar.

No better beer to celebrate the 120th day of the year. 5 years old and drinking just excellent. Dangerously smooth at the ABV.

Another one I dropped last night, screwed up my vertical damnit!

Opened 6/6/22. Less syrupy than the 2011, which was like cognac to me.

Ages great! Raisin sweetness, slight cocoa on the back end, boozy yet balanced.

7 year wait to crack this one. Aged beautifully! So smooth.

Wow! Never did I dream sitting on a 2015 would taste as rich and fresh in 2023. Amazingly complex; I will begin aging consistently going forward. 2016 and 2017 on tap tomorrow!

This is not getting any better with age. 8 years is too long to hold on too! Still enjoying it, though!

Finally cracked this open after 8 years with one of the 4 guys that went in with a case. And it's freaking phenomenal. So much more complex, still boozy but somewhat more smooth than expected. Will make this the winner of the evening by far.
