    2 quick questions:

    1) I have a couple btls of batch 297 Jolly Pumpkin Oro de Calabaza -- how old is this? I opened one a few weeks ago (unwittingly) and it was DELICIOUS, but I hadn't had it before and couldn't compare to fresh...

    2) I also found deep in the cellar a 2009 Double Dead Guy Ale, WTF!! Any word on this guy? Not sure if I open it or trade it?? Historically not a big Rogue fan, so not losing my mind to try it, but a 3 year old strong ale could be kinda fun...thoughts?

    Thanks!

    Bottle shop out my way has 2008's on the shelf. I grabbed a few. They're not bad. I'd just pop it, the 09's I have taste better than the older one. Just my take,

    Good tasting!

    double dead guy is great around 3 years, never head it any older. If memory serves correct the 2009 was what I had about 6 months ago, and it was awesome.
