    Anyone open these any of these bottles lately. If so how are they holding up?

    Thanks

    Had an Abyss '08 a few months back. Absolutely-fucking-divine. Not sure if it's just hit it's peak or if it was the best vintage, but it's a fantastic beer right now.

    Abyss '08 is badass right now. Had one a few weeks ago.

    I had a batch 4 (or maybe it was a 3) a few months ago. Held up very well.

    Had an 08 abyss about 3 months ago. One of the better stouts I've ever had. Drinking great right now. As to the supp004, I haven't had One since just after it came out.

    I just finished a bottle of 2008. It was fantastic! I wasn't sure how it would have held up, but it was truly awesome. I am a little biased living in Bend and having Deschutes at my back door, but it deserves the rating.

    Had a batch 5 supplication the other night (so about a year younger than batch 4), and it was fantastic. I've got a batch 4 that I'm thinking about drinking soon.

    I had my last 07/08/09/10 a while back; with regards to the 08- tasted great, however I think I prefer my Abyss on the younger side, it just wasn't what I remembered or expect from my go-to RIS. Also, love me some infected 09, with I had a few left to see how the bugs changed it over time.
