One that I can try fresh, the others to see how they age. Without doing that I don't see how one can say how well a beer ages, without having first tried it fresh.Barleyvinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02621247772269283238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22580343.post-84936574417295186112009-10-23T11:12:58.918-05:002009-10-23T11:12:58.918-05:00I just picked up a bottle of Mirror Mirror last we...I just picked up a bottle of Mirror Mirror last week and am planning on aging this beer a bit. It seems that whenever I buy a bottle of barleywine and open it up immediately the taste seems to scream at me to age it further. Some said to me "we will server no barleywine before it's time" - meaning it should be aged a bit more for all the tastes to meld together.<br /><br />Do you age your barleywines at all or do you drink them fresh from the brewery?Davehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04144288142060736290noreply@blogger.com
