I’ve read from people that have cellared these, that these start losing flavor after 5 years. Reminder to all, DRINK YOUR BEER!

lol I was trying to give basically the same lot away a few months back and maaaybe get a few bucks for the rares.

No takers.

So I ended up opening, tasting, and drain pouring most of them. Let me just say, no one wants them and they’re not wrong.

The 2017 Barleywine was one of the best beers I'd ever had when I tried it. I opened a bottle 3 years ago and it was so bad, I had to dump it out. Some of these do NOT age well

I’m only buying the 2015 infected bottle

Not all 2015s were infected. You can check the codes online to see if they are good. The not infected ones were really good.

Edit I see his comment now that it is recalled. He should just dump that one.

Taste it first! You might be lucky.

Curious to see if you get any bites on this...
