Are you supposed to drink 120 fresh?



It had 4 months in the bottle, would probably be much better a year from now, but I've had other big IPAs that tasted much better fresh than this. Wine and bourbon makers allow their product to age so that when it hits the shelves it is at a flavor that would be pleasing, acceptable and generate repeat business. Paying $10.00 for a 12 ounce bottle of beer that you need to age another year to be palatable is pretty ridiculous.

Haven't had it but a few times. Once really fresh, a couple weeks. It is boozy and fricked up. What do you expect for 18%


The other was a great or two old and still boozy, but way better on flavor.

The bottle I have know will be several years old before I open it.

If they held it for 5 years it would be the price of a good bottle of bourbon. Probably 25 a bottle.
