    It was inevitable once the Chicagoland area expanded to include New Glarus, WI.

    Do doppelbocks age well? I can think of a few examples of barrel-aged doppelbocks and eisbocks that seem like they would be cellarable in that they've already been aged before bottling. Guess what I'm wondering is what will Gyrator do after a year or two or more in the bottle? I have a basic idea what happens to stuff like wild ales, Barleywines, and stouts after some time but how about a doppelbock? I'll find out for myself I guess but does anyone have any experience?

    @Grounder shamed me for wanting a fresh dunkel...I bet he has an opinion?

    Snark aside, I'd bet it won't be awful after a year...I've drank plenty of Celebrator doppelbocks that I couldn't tell the date on, and they've all been fantastic.

    EDIT 1: I like @Grounder and this was purely meant in jest
    EDIT 2: I don't think you should age this on purpose. Fresh beer = best beer. This probably will age gracefully...but I highly doubt it will improve. SOURCE: my ongoing understanding of beer.

    You’re just mad you’re not invited. We’re going to open old school OG Spotted Cow brews and get nuts on that corn recipe cream ale!!!

    Really, my only demand is that @HouseofWortship attends. If that happens, I'll make heaven and earth move to make this happen.

    He's the Keyser Soze of the Chicago scene and I'm certain he'll never show his face.

    If I win the lottery, we're going to Old Glarus.

    But yes, let's make this happen. Even if it's only us crusty fucks.

    In. Can you set up a group DM and we can figure it out? This sounds epic.

    Who would have guessed the New Glarus thread would be a legit source of entertainment in 2022 (outside of the lawsuits)?
