North Coast Old Stock Ale 2007
North Coast Old Stock Ale 2007 12oz:
This 11.7% powerhouse is a brew to be reckoned with. It is great now and will be awesome one to three years from now so do not be afraid to put some up (I know I will).
Pours hazy brown with a tint of copper. The aroma is of toasty malt, a whiff of smoke and dark dried fruit. Malty and a touch sweet up front with a fruity mid-pallet and at this point it has a dry hop bitterness at the end which should mellow out nicely with age. This is definitely a grade A beer that should be part of anyone’s beer cellar.
