Less chocolatey than 1 year, a hint of cherry. Better at 1 year.

Still going strong at 3 years.

Some wild yeast. Makes it very interesting.

1 finger head, bubbles linger. Definite hop presence even after 27 months. A bit of chocolate malt, hop bitterness, and dried dark fruit. Really a nice, complex stout.

Nearly two years old. Black but not thick. Still has a nice head, half a finger and bubbles that stick around. Scent is gentle malty sweetness with a hint of cocoa. Taste is subtle coffee, chocolate covered raisins. Hops seem to be gone, but there is a faint bitterness still. Slightly sweet, coffee finish. Very nice, age has done this beer well.

Brown sugar, figs, toffee, tea, bit of hop bitterness.

Huge, foamy head. Deep amber. A layer of bubbles linger. Scent is a bit of hop, both british and american, brown sugar. Taste is brown sugar, tea, molasses, slight bitterness, a hint of tropical hop, tea-like finish. Very complex.

Pours with a nice head, some bubbles remain. Deep clear amber. Scent is pretty much boozy. Taste is alcohol, with some underlying caramel malty barleywine flavor. Body is thinner like a wheat. Essentially like a somewhat watered down (in taste and body, but not in alchohol) barleywine.

Not much change from a year ago. Lots of fruity sweetness, tartness, and a hint of oak. Excellent beer.

Not a ton of bourbon, nice dark fruity quad flavors.

Still excellent carbonation. A bit of oxidation, but just enough that it's pleasant and gained a bit of complexity over the last one I'd tried. Still a great beer at 6 years.

Same notes as before, even more head actually.

1 finger head (still), clear deep amber. A bit of sediment. Molasses, brown sugar, and a bit of booze. Still nice at ~5 years.

Past prime. Perhaps drink others more quickly.

Murky peach colored, ring of bubbles linger. Scent is tumeric, sour, hint of funk. Taste is moderately-strong sour, tumeric, breadiness, and tartness in the finish. Very nice, see how it ages.

Big, mocha head. Smells like a big, roasty stout. Taste is more stout-like, a bit more bitter, less sweet than fresh. Complex, but lost the sweetness of fresh, so a bit less complex. Still a great beer, although I'd probably not age this more than a year, or else try to age it 3-4 years to see if any aged flavors come through.

Big, foamy mocha head. A nice layer of bubbles lingers. Scent is a little roasty, a little hoppy. Taste is sweet, roasty, a little bitter, a hint of wood. Hugely complex. Finish is balance of sweet and roasty. Complexity is off the chain, and some very unique flavors.
