E Rechlin is drinking a Small Batch Series No. 8 by Ranger Creek Brewing & Distilling at West University Place, TX
Bottled 2.4.14, aged over 10 years, and over 10 years since I last drank a bottle. Very malty and fairly smooth, with a little hop bitterness. Slightly fruity. Has lost some depth over time, however.
