Nutty and perfectly boozed. Loud and boldly attention seeking. Raisin is grapey and lingering - the vintage is soft, beautifully poised like a port, smooth and supple and smoky like an old whiskey. This is a real treat Joshua. Merry Christmas fam! šš š¼

Bottled 22 Nov 2014. Sweet molasses and raisins along with other dark fruit flavours. Thin and not too boozy.

Still potent, but mellowed. Ton of barrel. Remember picking these up. Last one during cellar clear out.

Bottled 11/14. Booziness has definitely faded with time. Not really hot at all. Thanks John!

The nose is just as rich and boozy as the day it was brewed. Still nicely carbonated, not as sweet or as complex as previous bottles I have had. Still a great celebratory beer!

In 07 & 14 they said it was brewed every 7 years. So I saved one for comparison, only to see they started making it ever year since 2017.....

Seven years of aging, the label long gone, this has acquired a bit of a barleywine character more so than a Belgian, as the candi sugar nature is goneā¦but it still does not come across as ~18%. Sipper.

Increased from 3.5 to a 4.0. Either the years sitting have improved its flavor profile, or I just now appreciate this beer so much more many years later.

LCI. Had high hopes this one would age well. A little let down with a thinner body, but still rewarded with some nice flavor notes of raisin, prune, light cardamom, and light chocolate. Mixed feelings... probably should've opened 3 years ago. 3.9

Aged for nine years. Probably should have had it a bit sooner. Great taste upfront, but a little off in the after taste.

The most powerful āon the noseā beer Iāve had. Oldest beer ever drank. Not sure how to rate this. Cheers to Ralph E. For sharing this interesting brew.

This is drinkable but not sure itās worth it at this abv. Plus I think Iāll hate it the more I drink this. Itās turned into this port-like drink and itās almost too sweet
