    King Henry, there really isn't a reason to age it in the first place, tasted great fresh.

    If only one, King Henry – easily the best one of the 3 in my opinion.

    I maintain a well-aged Abyss is one of the absolute best beers you can ever hope to drink. I had a 4 year old Abyss last year and it's probably in my top 3 of all time.

    I believe there is only one batch of King Henry and it's from 2011.

    Had an '08 Abyss last year and it was starting to get over the hill. I like the idea of having them all.
