Not drinking this today but was rearranging my cellar setup and remembered I had it. 2011 Sam Adams Utopias with taster. 30% abv

:o
That's like saying, "Man, I was cleaning out my garage today and remembered i had this S550 AMG. Might drive it some day…"
Great score! I've only seen one other from that year, and I didn't get to taste it. Would love to hear/see your impressions/pics if you ever open it.
Wish I could find some of the 2015 Utopias, sounds brilliant:

Haha it was a gift way back in 2011. It's dusty. If the Pats win tomorrow I'll toast it. Outside of that I'll be opening a couple different Treehouse brews tonight or tomorrow.
-
The taster was a gift from Sam Adams. In order to get it I had to give them the serial number on the bottle and they mailed it to me. Pretty classy.
-
Thanks. I'll be using it later after market trip.

My regular trading partner offered me some, but I didn't feel like having to ship him two million bottles of Cantillon in return…

You made the right choice!

I'll keep an eye out. I'm going to a pretty good tasting/trading event next weekend and Sam Adams will actually be there.

Tonight's lineup, shared with mom in law
Treehouse Alter Ego - almost perfect
Wormtown Be Hoppy - too bitter from front to back not well rounded
Big Elm Transformer IPL - their first try, just ok, doesn't hold a candle to Jacks Abbey in this category, which brings me to this..
Jacks Abbey Hoponius Union IPL. Very crisp very solid. No coffee table because kids so I improvised. -
My holiday is off to a BRILLIANT start… Best aged beer I've ever drank... One of the best beers I've ever drank, period... I was scared it'd be past its point, being a 2008 bottle... Fuck me running - it sure as fuck wasn't... Slowly gushing foam when opened, poured a beautiful chestnut with a bit of cognac coloured ale that prominently had port in the nose...
The balance... The balance... Dear gods the balance... I'm pretty sure this was at its absolute PEAK...
-
How do I get that…or something close.

Cheers. I'll be asking promptly. I'm in Massachusetts btw.
