Many stouts are good with a few years of age.

Re: What beers are you enjoying II?
 

Yeah for sure. Classic example of "long term" aging for stouts is Bells Expy.. Late 90's bottles are drinking great right now.

Re: What beers are you enjoying II?
 

I cant imagine holding onto a beer for that long. I have a few that im trying to age but i have to litterally hide them in the fridge so i dont see them.

Well, I believe they are an acquired taste for most. I reacted similarly to my first sour, but then began to appreciate and crave them.

That said, Monk's is a good example of that style IMO, but certainly not the best. I think Rodenbach Grand Cru (not the regular Rodenbach) is a better example of the style.

There are also a lot of other sour/wild styles out there, some very sour and some barely sour at all.

Bastiges! Haven't been able to get my hands on any here yet. :(

We've got a few of certain things hidden so that we don't drink them. 2011 KBS, a bunch of GI Big John, some of this years Trader Joe's seasonal, and a few others.

And from last night (maybe this actually fits in the great pair thread, :p):

I have like 5 bottles left from a case I bought in 2008 and I have to agree.

Re: What beers are you enjoying II?
 

Re: What beers are you enjoying II?
 

Nice. Less than 12 hours till I get to crack another one of those open. Just have to work first.

Re: What beers are you enjoying II?
 

Tonight I am having a Rochefort 10

Re: What beers are you enjoying II?

Ruthless Rye from Sierra Nevada......GREAT STUFF!! So happy we finally got something other than the Pale Ale up here. Don't get me wrong, I still love the PA, but it's nice to have something different from them finally.

Other favorite was their Tumbler Ale, but only had 1 12 pack in stock and never replenished. :(

Re: What beers are you enjoying II?
 

Ruthless Rye is one of the better SA offerings, IMO. That and the Torpedo.

Re: What beers are you enjoying II?
 

I can't wait for Torpedo in tall boy cans.
