Still tastes amazing after all these years. Wow!

Held up extremely well still very boozy, great flavor and unlike 2015+ BCS, not thin.
2017-04-06
Amazing. Tastes almost like the regular from those days, but smoother. Wish I bought the last one on the shelf too!

Something’s not quite right about this one. Not infected, but it’s like all the malt dropped out and all that’s left is the booze. Weird...
2018-11-09
Still great after 3 years. Better than 2016/2017. More molasses; newer ones are thinner.
2018-01-22
Tasting great after 2 years of aging. Happy Birthday to me!
2016-12-01
Really great aged even only 1 year.
Drank 16 oz of Finder by Shipyard Brewing Co. (2017-12-01)January 11th, 2018
2018-01-11
Doesn’t seem like a good representation of New England style IPA. It’s too bitter and doesn’t have much other flavor.
Drank 16 oz of Two juicy by Two Roads Brewing Co. (2017-09-20)January 9th, 2018
Drank 12 oz of Xolotl by Avery Brewing Company (2016-05-19)January 7th, 2018
2016-09-18
Really nice, bourbony and smooth. Thankfully the chili spice is minimal - I love spice, but not in beer.
Drank 12 oz of KBS (Kentucky Breakfast Stout) by Founders Brewing (2016-02-12)January 6th, 2018
2024-02-18
Lots of coffee and dark chocolate. Definitely taste the age, but still enjoyable.
2022-11-30
Definitely taste the age. Still tons of coffee. Best fresh.
2020-05-04
This was their off year. I will say while it wasn’t good overall, it seems to have held up to where it was back then. Still best fresh.
2020-01-18
Either this was the off year or this didn’t hold up well. Flavors aren’t right. Maybe it will improve as it warms.
2018-04-16
2 years later, it still hasn't improved much.
2018-01-06
Slightly better than it was when fresh, but still not up to the standards of other years.
2017-04-05
It now has a year on it and hasn't improved much. This year's is fantastic; 2016 still is not.
2016-09-08
Still not any better. I think this year's batch will need 2-3 years before it tastes decent.
Drank 16 oz of Southdown Breakfast Stout by Sand City Brewing Co. (2017)January 4th, 2018
2018-01-04
Lots of great roasty, malty, and coffee goodness. A bit thin, but pretty good. Thanks Irwin M.
Drank 16 oz of Bourbon County Brand Stout Rare by Goose Island Beer Co. (2015-09-21)December 31st, 2017
2022-03-12
Still holding up amazingly. Lots of sweet barrel goodness that lingers, and dark chocolate.
2020-06-14
This is in my opinion one of the best beers you can buy. I’m thankful to have been lucky enough to get a few bottles and am happy to say that this one has held up well, is not infected, and is the world class beer I remember when I first had it. Cheers! This is to celebrate paying off our mortgage!
2019-04-09
Not infected and held up amazingly well. No noticeable drop off in flavor since the last time I had one.
2017-12-31
So good, just like I remember it 2 years ago! Wow!
2016-04-16
Absolutely fantastic. Will definitely try to get more of this and age it. Very boozy but enjoyable. Sweet, smooth bourbon flavor really comes out nicely.
Drank 16 oz of Two juicy by Two Roads Brewing Co. (2017-09-20)December 28th, 2017
Drank 16 oz of Java Cask by Victory Brewing (2017-10-25)December 27th, 2017
2021-01-14
Very strong dark chocolate with a little too much bitterness. Coffee takes a back seat to the chocolate, but likely adds some bitterness of its own. Regardless, it’s really good.
2018-11-08
This tastes a bit more bitter than I remember. Perhaps this wasn’t stored properly. Just bought it but is a year old.
2017-12-27
Smells so good. Lots of bourbon and coffee on the nose. The only downside for me is the bitterness, which gets stronger on the aftertaste.
Drank 12 oz of Tweak (Bourbon Barrel) by Avery Brewing Company (2014-10-28)December 22nd, 2017
2017-12-22
Really good after 3 years. Still hot, but nicely balanced.
