The 2009 batch/release had some contamination issues. It sounded like the entire release may have had issues and how the bottles were stored/kept after the release may have lessened or worsened the said issue.

Good to hear you had one that wasn't completely off.

Either had a bad one, then a good one and/or the aging really helped. All I know is that the '09 with a year of aging was awesome.

May have to buy another couple 22s and drink one right away and age the other a year and see how it differs. I should do the same test with a couple accompanying full-body maduros.

Troegs Nugget Nectar

Awesome. I picked up a barrel of this stuff for a buddy at work. He was THRILLED at the price I got it up here in our depressed economic county (that's independent of the "recession".

I went ahead and got a case of it at cost later, and split up the 6 packs. Wish I would have just kept it for myself. 5 cases were there when I got it yesterday. Down today for a keg of Yuengling Boc beer (seasonal) and there was 1 left.
