    Just received a bottle with no abv on box or bottle! Anybody have an accurate abv on this? Also, should it be aged more or drank fresh? Cheers.

    I saw that, but is it accurate?! I just think it's weird, nothing on the box or on the bottle, put it somewhere! Excited to get it!

    Is from the brewery's website.... Why wouldn't it be accurate ?

    For what it's worth- been told it's a rum boozy bomb. Taste like a barleywine which with Terrapins rather malty attempts at ipas I would say that could be accurate.

    Haven't opened mine yet-

    Thanks! I'll let mine sit a bit, not into boozy beer unless it's BCBS Rare.

    I grabbed a bottle the other day. I am not too crazy about Hopzilla or any barrel aged IPA's.

    Guess I will find out soon enough....put the bottle in the fridge this AM for consumption tonight.

    Will report back if anyone is interested.

    Sounds like 120 Minute + a barrel. Still have a WnB in my fridge from being out in FL, cant come out with an occasion to just drink it!

    Except 120 is 17% ABV and up.

    IMO W-n-B is the only good beer by Terrapin.

    I was going with the perspective of 120 IBU, High ABV IPA that overstimulates your senses kind of similar.

    I thought it just tasted like a barleywine. I have another I'm gonna cellar or perhaps trade.

    I thought this was delicious & I've been picking up boxes any time I see them. Nothing at all like Hopzilla- but its still boozy, sweet and delicious. Loads of great rum barrel character if you're in to that sort of thing.
