Drank with Will at F1. Fantastic, love how this one is progressing.
2021-05-26
Wow, the 1.5 years have treated this so well. Balance of flavors between malt, booze and wood is intoxicating. Living it now and should just get better for multiple years.

Good but another year will be better
Drank 500 ml of Colour Five by Jester King Craft Brewery (2016-01)October 31st, 2019

All sweet notes are muted and melded with the farmhouse base. Very enjoyable.

2019-10-31
Blown away with flavor at the beginning. Aftertaste lingers with astrigency. Heavy dried stone fruits, wood.

Remarkably good at 4 years, especially when warmer.
Drank 750 ml of Kriek De Ranke by Brouwerij De RankeOctober 13th, 2019
2019-10-13
A little past best by date. Very good, dry, funky and moderately sour with cherries integrated rather than playing first fiddle. Nose is primarily cherry, but taste brings many other notes. Medium light body and does not retain carbonation.
Drank 500 ml of Cherry Funk by Prairie Artisan Ales (2014)October 7th, 2019
2019-10-07
Overflowed. Still a great taste. Light bodied. Has more time.

Enjoyed at Blast n Cast. Drinking incredibly well. Nose is perfect, very minor oxidation on taste. Great molasses booziness. Finish is slightly flawed.

Falling in flavor with some improvement with air time.
2024-02-23
HCBS #21 12 year vertical. Worst of show, boozy.
2024-01-16
After some air it drank amazingly. Big body, very minor difference from new. Boozy and delicious.
2023-09-14
Enjoyed at HCBS #17 before a 2022. Wow, this one continues to hold up great! Was the favorite of the two hands-down. Bigger body and more complex.
2023-03-14
A bit disappointed on this one. Heavy mold on the cap but no infiltration on seal. Good flavor up front but finish not as good as others in this year.
2022-09-16
Somerset dove camp. Great with some signs of oxidation.
2022-08-09
At Gulpha Gorge campground fireside. Simply wonderful as usual.
2021-12-22
Nose: chocolate, fig, dark cherry. Taste: Boozy, brighter flavors. Body: Much smoother, more carb.

Great ale at Black Gap WMA
2020-04-24
A bit medicinal, hot, boozy. Very good but not the best bottle in this vintage.
2020-04-06
Another great bottle. I have to search for oxidation. Tremendous!

Better than expected. Very enjoyable. Slight off taste at the end
2022-12-29
Enjoyed at HCBS #10. So good we had to drink 2. Surprised a few on how well the smoke and peat work with the BA stout. No significant issues with slight oxidation.

Drank 750 ml of Rye On Rye On Rye by Boulevard Brewing Company (2017)September 13th, 2019
2019-09-13
Under a micro harvest moon, hard to rate visual. 2017 release, minimal head or lacing. Nose carries wood, caramel, whisky. Taste is excellent, dried fruit, booze, treacle, fig, caramel malt, tannins in balance. Big body, light carbonation.

Even cleaner than the green bottle.
