Bootleggers Brewery Rustic Rye! Hold it in your mouth and you can taste the rye! Digging it!

Bootleggers is one of my favorites. Try the Palomino Pale Ale while you're there.
Do they bottle and distribute this to other areas?
It was a lot of fun - took three hours to complete.
Did a beer tasting last night. 9 different vintage Ommegang Three Philosophers. This is a Belgium style quad, with 2% Cherry Lambic. The beers ranged in age from 2006 to 2013. They've all been stored in my root cellar for the whole time.
The interesting thing was that a lot of folks liked the midrange aged beers (2008-2010) better than the older stuff. We did this as a double blind tasting, so no one knew which beer was which during the tasting. There were quite a bit of difference between some of the beers.

What there a favorite? Was there a consensus on that? Any of them fall off/no good?
9 years is a great start.Did a 13 year vertical of SN Bigfoot Barleywine-style Ale. Started with oldest and worked our way up, leaving a little bit in each glass so we can go back and forth between the years and compare/contrast. And then finally blending a little bit of each into one glass for a Grand Cru!
