    Bringing this to a bottle share tomorrow. Tried to do some research online but could not find any definite answers. Anybody know exactly when this was brewed/bottled and how well it ages?

    Here you go, linked on the Russian River website: https://store-54e42.mybigcommerce.com/bottle-logs

    Batch 69 brewed on 7/27/2011, and the only batch in many (according to the logs) brewed with French Saison Yeast rather than Abbey Ale Yeast. Should be fun; enjoy!

    Edit: that may be the case for all "Batch 23 Damnation", not sure, others can surely clarify.

    I believe one of the "23" batches was brewed with champagne yeast

    I actually opened one of these a couple of weeks ago, and it tasted like a barleywine. Odd

    Had it twice this year. One bottle was great, one was so-so.

    Just curious if anyone may know when D23 Batch 92 may be released? Its been 3 years since B69, so I am assuming that they should be close. :slight_smile:

    More disrespectful to expect people to do the work for you.

    That is intriguing and I need to open a bottle now.

    I asked because I was interested in the release details etc. stuff, you can't find by just googling it on BA and finding the beer listing page. Do you seriously think I didn't just google the " russian river damnation 23 " phrase before? OK, maybe I should be more specific what I'm asking about, that I agree, my bad on that...but to pull the lmgtfy.com right away? Oh well...

    Opened this tonight. Taste was good but it was completely flat.
