Shane: I think Beatification is the RR exception to aging vs the others.

Should have drank this sooner. Sadly it's thin and flabby and not tart at all. Even the Brett has left this ravaged and dry. All citrus pith...no life left here.

Hop Doc: Perhaps the better mix of critters in the open air beatification beers as opposed to the pure strains which limit the diversity and longevity. An interesting study Shane
Shane: I’ve had Beat fresh at release and years later. Completely different beer. Given Beat is their only spontaneous ale, that might lend credence to your theory about it.

Very dry. Nice funky flavor. Refreshing. Lots of carbonation. This one aged very nicely over the last 4 years.

Nice to compare to a fresh Orval. The brettiness here is just right.

So much basement and so much brett over a barreled golden. Unique and great

Bitter lemon with some earthiness. Bone dry. Tastes like a reductive hoppy saison at this point. I’ve learned the same lesson Hop D. - Russian River are better fresh or not past ~3 yrs.
