Flop was '99 and Destinee was '98
Flop far exceeded all my expectations considering its name and prior reviews. Lots of papery and cardboard oxidation but a surprising amount of citrus, pulp and black pepper. Cork pulled out clean and the carbonation was creamy and perfect.
Destinee was unreal. Oxidation on par for a 16 year old (wut?) carbonation was perfect despite Dany forgetting to put a cork in it (was only capped.) An amazing array of sour stone fruits somewhat like cherry blended with cranberry and currants. Earthen with a layering of stinky cheese and contrasting caramel malt. A dusty brett profile in the aftertaste. The strange thing about this beer is how well the alcohol warmth came through.
