Arcadia Barrel-Aged Shipwreck Porter

This is delicious fresh but I immediately regret not aging it for 5 years. Slightly bitter—hoppy even. Bourbon and candy on the nose and up-front, with vanilla running throughout. This (especially wax-dipped as it is), is going to age beautifully. Even a little oxidation wouldn't hurt this. It's of a similar caliber to Founders. Maybe not quite as good as a KBS, but still good. For the price though, KBS is cheaper if less plentiful.
