    Thinking of cracking my last one. Haven't had one in well over a year. Anyone have one recently? How is it?

    Is that the barleywine or the wheatwine? Had the wheatwine a few months ago and while still tasty, it was definitely headed downhill. I've got a barleywine in the fridge, but wasn't a big fan the times I tried it.

    It's the barleywine. Black barleywine if you will.

    Last time I had one (a few months ago), I thought it had improved. The flavors seemed to have balanced out and integrated. But then, I wasn't crazy about it to begin with.

    Really, I remember it being super resinous hops when it was fresh, thought that would have mellowed out a lot by now.

    Had one about a month ago and it was still really hoppy.

    I had one earlier this year and it still tasted like floor cleaner. Im thinking this is gonna turn into a good beer but Im saving my other two bottles for at least a couple more years.

    Send me a bottle, and I'll let you know.

    Seriously, please send me a bottle. I bought two when it was released and gave one to a friend. HUGE mistake.
