    Does anyone have experience with aging the RR Salvation? There's a good chance I may be able to get a few bottles. I'll be drinking the first one fresh, but am hoping to hear a bit about how well they age.

    Thanks, in advance.

    It's been years since I've had RR (since they stopped distribution in WA), but I remember distinctly enjoying it aged. I know that doesn't help much, but maybe you could contribute your experience to the general knowledge here :slight_smile:

    Appreciate your comment. Would indeed share but hard to predict when. Still haven't made up my mind if or when.

    The when is particularly ambiguous at this point since last time I had a few bottles of Temptation I gave in to temptation too often and didn't get a whole lot of age on the last one. :slight_smile:

    In my experience it ages well. I recall having one about 2 years old and liked it a lot. Temptation IMO doesn't age as well as their darker beers. Doesn't really go off, but better fresh. Only light colored RR to age IMO is Beatification.
