Hair of the Dog Dave was still in a small oak barrel in 2004, so that much was on wood for 10 years, and no doubt other barrels are being drawn off for the rare bottle. unless the brewer has drawn the remains of the first batch completely into bottles or stainless steel, that would put Dave at 19 years on wood right now.

So you are saying that it all has not been bottled? If so, where did you come by that info? Thanks, just curious!
