Yes it is. The first two I sessioned the other day were phenomenal. Can't wait to see it all grown up in a year or two!

PM - Rogue Yellow Snow IPA - very snappy hops on this one.

Mill Street Vanilla Porter (nitro = not in Growler!!) and Mill Street Roggenbier (also fantastic - but yes, in growler!) - and took with me a delicious MS Pumpkin Ale growler for New Years Eve (the third beer presently on Growler is MS IPA, which I liked on Cask) ... watch out for MS Betelgeuse Tripel, coming to growlers soooonnn....

How was the VP, Belgian? Really want to try that, will probably go to the brewpub Thurs. to get a double-whammy of that and the Weizenbock (supposed to be released Wed.)...

Also had a growler of each of the pumpkin and the roggenbier for a party on Sat night, both went over well with a diverse crowd.

Excited for the Duggan opening as well, I can't wait to try that porter!

Good stuff going on this week.

Got a 2009 in the fridge right now - do you reckon its better fresh or with a bit of age?

The Vanilla Porter was mediocre for a beer but awful as a porter. I don't understand how any brewer could make this and call it a porter. Its like believing Keiths is an IPA.

I'd be interested on your take too, Jon. Posted in this thread a few days ago that I had a 2009 and didn't dig it at all. I have another 2009 in my store room that I'm debating about keeping or "gifting" to get rid of.
