From the Archives (vol.1)
Today, I cracked open one of the Kimosabe Red's I have archived from a little over 2 months ago. I wasn't sure how the brew was going to keep being bottled like this, but I was very pleasantly surprised. It still tastes awesome, has a good maltiness, not sweet at all, didn't pick up any rubbery flavor that we've had with some of the bottled brews, and was still plenty carbonated. I have several bottles from the last 6-7 batches left still - the oldest being the double IPA extract brewed last summer.
I also opened an Abominale's Revenge last weekend so I could send the bottle in to BYO for the label contest. It's got a lot of the butterscotch/dark chocolate flavor that the Peacemaker had, which was weird, but still nice and smooth. It didn't have any heat or off-flavor from the high alcohol content, but it was definitely still there.
It's nice to know that the brew's are holding up over time.
