Held up very well. Balanced spice and a bit of barrel.

Loving it. Close to still.

Super spicy and super good. No real signs of oxidation. Spices strong and very enjoyable.

Great taste. Booziness dropped off and balance improved over fresh.

Still boozy, a bit bitter. Has the usual characteristics.

Similar to last bottle. Black pour, minimal foam, no retention or lacing. Has dropped off but very good. I the world of big, barrel aged stouts this one is more tame, especially on the nose. Taste of roasted malt, molasses, very light on wood and bourbon. Above average body and low carbonation. Only a little sorry to drink my last one.

Really good! Lightly dropped off.Nice malt and bourbon notes.

Flavor fallen off. Decent carbonation. Still better than expected.

Overall good but oxidation present. Getting the coffee, vanilla, some cocoa. Some heat way in the finish but highly muted. Enjoyed

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

Enjoyed in pool. Loved it.

Falling in flavor with some improvement with air time.

HCBS #21 12 year vertical. Worst of show, boozy.

After some air it drank amazingly. Big body, very minor difference from new. Boozy and delicious.

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.

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.

Somerset dove camp. Great with some signs of oxidation.

At Gulpha Gorge campground fireside. Simply wonderful as usual.

Nose: chocolate, fig, dark cherry. Taste: Boozy, brighter flavors. Body: Much smoother, more carb.

Needed air for 10 min then spectacular

Great ale at Black Gap WMA

A bit medicinal, hot, boozy. Very good but not the best bottle in this vintage.

Another great bottle. I have to search for oxidation. Tremendous!

Doing great

Absolutely incredible. This one has more years to come. Sour is tame, still has some hints of mezcal.

Fantastic! Hint of mushroom and light sourness. Carbonation dropped off but otherwise excellent.

8 years old and fantastic! Pours clear golden with some head but near still, no lacing. Nose mildly funky, melon, and citrus. Taste a bit of spice, pepper, coriander, sweet lime, mild sour and farmhouse finish. Medium body.
