Instigator Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 I didn't expect the peanut paste stout ROTM kit to sell out before the ESVA kit, but it did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably had more of the ESVA packs, knowing it would be popular. The Peanut Butter Stout sounds great too and at a good price point compared to more recent Craft ROTM's. Not surprised it was popular. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also figure that a peanut stout sounds as appetising to me as Kale Ale. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drewbert Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 My precious arrived today. The rest of the order (non rotm) is apparently still on its way... Now just need to find a clear weekend to make it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

porschemad911 Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 I'm down to the last 6-pack of my 2019 ESVA case. In past years, at this point I would put it in the back of the cupboard for aging, but this year I think I'm just going to drink it. Cheers, John 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Put it away until the 2020 Vintage comes out. I have a sixer of the 2018 Vintage that I opened a week ago. It was good in 2018, but great in 2019. My ROTM homebrew version was so so in 2018. But the tallies I stored beside the six pack now taste much better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too late this time though, I had a couple last night and a couple tonight, so down to the last 2. Cheers, John 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rampage429 Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 Thought i would share a pic of my Vintage collection. Needed to relocate it as it was taking up to much room in my clothes cupboard. Missing 06 & 07 only as i went interstate for football, i always check gumtree etc but no joy so far. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MitchellScott Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 My Vintage Ale has been ageing for a bit over a month in the keg. Have been wanting to try it all week but told myself not until Friday..... Can't wait to get home 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MitchellScott Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 Well here she is... First pour. Certainly a nice beer..... In moderation. I think it could do with some extra ageing but nonetheless still quite nice. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shamus O'Sean Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 Looks good @MitchellScott. It has got a good dry hop, so at least in part it is meant to be consumed in good time. Once the dry hop fades, it will benefit from that ageing. My batch has been in the fermenter for five days now. Still fermenting along. Dry hop planned for the weekend. Then cold crash during the week and bottle next weekend. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting better every new bottle i open but still not a patch on 2018 IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaddyBrew2 Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 Couldn’t believe my eyes at my bottle-o. Half price vintages. Manager says “ yeah they’re not making it anymore so we’re clearing the space” I thought to myself hmmmmmm, clearly this person hasn’t a clue about the product. But i kept my mouth shut and handed her over 14 of my best dollars. Bargain of the year 2 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaddyBrew2 Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 There were two more six packs in behind that one. I should have bought at least another. I’ll wonder in next weekend and my luck might be in again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otto Von Blotto Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 Would have thought the "seasonal release" might have given a clue that it isn't produced year round 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poddy Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 a couple of months later, had another sample. Very nice, very happy! Cheers & Beers! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm down to my last one now I have got about 10 stubbies and 12 longnecks. The longnecks were for aging, but given most of my brews since a couple of Saisons have got a diastaticus yeast infection, the longnecks will be drank early. Diastatucus symptoms have not shown up in my 2019 ESVA yet (bottled in early November), but it is not worth the risk of them slowly but surely overcarbonating.
