    I just picked up a bomber of this. Now back home and see its retired. Hoping it isn't to ridiculously old as I can't imagine a 5% abv will be able to hold on for that long. Right?

    And sorry for the typo in the title: Should be "last" and not "least."

    2009 is the date when the beer was added to the website it seems.

    It appears that there was a batch recently released, based on online listings for bars and bottle shops. It may just take a bit before someone decides to submit the correction that the beer is in fact active again.

    Looking around online not seeing anything to suggest there has been a new release of this. And after reading some of the more recent reviews of this beer here, which the newest is a year old, are far from encouraging. Seems to me this bottle is from 2009.

    If so, I am expecting a drain pour. It wasn't a great beer when it was fresh. 5 or so years of age on it, I am kinda scared.
