Poured in 2019 from a keg cellared in 2015. Aged very well. Excellent flavors.

I picked up a 4 pack straight from the source during a visit to Kinston. It's the 2016 version I got, bottled on 4/4/16, just ahead of their 2017 release. This is an outstanding beer, slightly different take on a Belgian style Tripel, by aging in bourbon barrels. Belgian ale up front, with a nice barrel aged finish. Smooth for the abv, some sweetness, and the alcohol isn't overpowering, but definitely there.
