    ANNNNNNNND....here comes my beer drinking rant!

    Still tons of grapefruit and rye flavor, and a wonderful hoppy nose.

    Maybe not as resinous and hoppy as it once was, but not far off.

    Thanks you SN, in a land of "must drink fresh" IPAs, that I feel I still need to stock up on this while I (maybe) still can.

    Yes BAs, call me crazy! I'm still taking this older specimen over fresh Torpedo!

    Cheers!

    Had a bottle of Ruthless the other night, it was still pretty tasty, but it was definitely muted compared to fresh.

    Some friends of mine had some a few days ago and reported the same thing. I drank a ton of Ruthless Rye earlier in the year, but didn't hold on to any.

    I loved fresh Ruthless Rye, but it's time to move on. I'll drink a ton of it next year, but I'm not looking to pick up any 4 month old IPAs to drink, I'll take them fresh please.

    Looks like it's time for an "aging IPA"s thread.

    I saw a six pack with a ton of dust on it at a local mart. Picked it up instantly!
