    Does anyone know how this is drinking right now? I've heard good things and bad. Could trade for one and interested to see the thoughts of folks that have tried it recently.

    Thanks!

    I think this has a lot of bottle variation so it's like playing the lotto right now. I drank one last march that was phenomenal and people were saying how the maple had faded etc.

    I personally wouldn't trade for it again. We just have to hope they will brew this again!

    I've had two in the past two months and both were HORRIBLE, and I mean really really bad. One had a mint like flavor going on that was BAD, and the other tasted like stale coffee. Had another about a year ago that was fantastic, would gamble right now unless someone wants to trade one for locals.

    It may be worth trading for you don't have to give the whole farm for it

    Had one about 1.5 months ago that was drinking great, must be bottle variation and/or how people are storing them I'm guessing.

    The only phenomenal batch was made like 4 years ago. Bottles are junk.

    Agreed. Storage is key

    Had one about a month ago and it was still drinking very well. I store mine in a temp controlled wine fridge so that might make the difference. I will check back in a few months when I open another.

    I'm doing the same. I have 3 in mine. Would potentially be open to trading one though.

    The bottle I opened a couple months ago was AWFUL. I don't think anyone finished their pour, and we definitely didn't finish the bottle. It had this really strong vegital/stale coffee flavor going on that was really unbearable. Essentially no positive qualities.

    What might you be looking for? Inquiring minds, like myself, want to know. :grinning:
