Mar 8, 2008 Split Thy Vintage Skull. Pours pretty flat, no carbonation at all. Aroma is iced tea. Flavor is peach and orange, along with the previously mentioned iced tea. Dusty dry with a nice hoppiness.

Jan 3, 2008 Tap @ Barcade. Was told this was vintage 2005. Poured a very hazy amber color with a thin off-white head. The aroma was of aged malt and aged fruit with a mild tartness. The flavor was the same as the aroma but fuller. Mildly bitter finish with good warmth and a medium body.

Dec 22, 2007 Tap at Barcade. Dank, light hop aroma with good spices and a bit of licorice. Odd fruity flavor, like unripe fruits. Slightly sour, perhaps infected. Don’t think this was what they were intending. Still is decent and enjoyable, though.

Nov 2, 2006 Tap at Hop Devil Grill. Deep amber beer, thick white head. Aroma is both earthy and peachy with light spicy hops as well. A bit of appley fruity character throughout along with a lasting peachiness as well. Earthy flavour with some toasty maltiness throughout. Resiny hoppyness with a lingering bitter finish.

Oct 27, 2006 Pours an amber orange, murky, with a nice head. Firm, but light malt, which gives off a rounded underlying sweetness. Has a later hoppy dry finish (touch of citrus). Balanced, not bad, nothing great.
