Hoppy, surprisingly. Bitter. Dry. Sweet malt back end.

Thinner palate than previous years, more drinkable and less bitter.

In my opinion, I don't think this beer has aged well. For 10yo it still was quite sweet. After some significant breathing and warming, it improves, but not enough.

As amazing as when I had it in 2014. The hoppyness has subsided, but a rich caramel and biscuit flavor takes over. A very well done beer, and still holds up after 10 years!!! I can’t think of very many beers like that. Excellent Stone Beer Fest!!
