It’s complex, trying to figure out what I am drinking is it beer, molasses, old coffee, or an ash tray. Not a favorite

Oh God, I’ve hit the point where stuff in my cellar is about to turn ten. Also, my back hurts.

Jan 16 bottle. This has largely aged out. The oak is still present and there are remnants of that maple. I miss these DFH brews

It's certainly strong, but I somehow find it lacks body and flavor.

That is super interesting. There's an immediate sweetness on the nose from the vanilla and maple syrup, with a mid of strong peat, and a finish of maple syrup. Super complex beer, not my favorite because of the peat but I love the concept.

Blown away by how incredibly well this aged since I didn’t store it in the most ideal conditions. It was like some sort of fruity maple, vanilla sauce that wasn’t overly sweet because it was balanced by hints of smoke and oak. Bottled 12/22/15. Hid ABV.

A heady aperitif after a hearty meal. Woody, vanilla, piney hops and thick, resiny body. Gift from Kip!

Dustin once called himself a #certifiedhophead for drinking this. Now I think he would tell you if you haven't had a beer from a well in Cambodia filtered by ancient beetle tusks you really aren't having beer at all.

Bottles 12/22/15. The nose was similar to a saison ale. Taste was much different than On the nose. Smoked hickory wood and maple. The age on this made for a perfect balance. Awesome brew

Another old ass IPA? Nope! Vintage 2008 Strong Ale brewed with peat smoked barley, organic juniper berries, vanilla & maple syrup then aged in oak tanks. Raisins, figs, and plums with a splash of vanilla, a hint of maple syrup, and a huge amount of oak.

This is an extremely strong ale just this side of a Barleywine. Sweet...with a full aroma. Excellent.

Malty, grainy, a bit nutty, with a raisin-y aroma. Hints of vanilla, maple, but definitely oaky.
