Interesting 2011 is an 18\/20 blend and the 2012 is full 20 years. Should have done these side by side but oh well.A &#8211; Pours pitch black. Not thick but certainly very dark in the glass. a tiny nitro looking head forms and fades fast.<\/p>\n<p>S &#8211; Lots of raisin, fig, and chocolate notes. Sadly a bit of soy sauce as well.<\/p>\n<p>T &#8211; Taste is nice. Still yes, lots of soy sauce but there\u2019s a nice hot chocolate with marshmallow taste, dark fruits, nice vanilla presence and a whole ton of oak just oaky from start to finish. I get a minor coconut as well.<\/p>\n<p>M &#8211; Oily and thin.<\/p>\n<p>O &#8211; Not a bad beer. Probably should have opened this up a year ago. Still very good.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a title=\"View 'FiftyFifty Imperial Eclipse Stout - Elijah Craig 20 Year Barrel' on Flickr.com\" href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/adamjackson\/12156488204\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\" alt=\"FiftyFifty Imperial Eclipse Stout - Elijah Craig 20 Year Barrel\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/farm8.staticflickr.com\/7354\/12156488204_eac0fce504_z.jpg?resize=450%2C600&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"450\" height=\"600\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"&nbsp; 3.8 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0AROMA\u00a06\/10\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0APPEARANCE\u00a05\/5\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0TASTE\u00a07\/10\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0PALATE\u00a04\/5\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0OVERALL16\/20 adamjackson\u00a0(1895)\u00a0&#8211; Lyme, New Hampshire, USA &#8211; JAN 17, 2014 \u00a0[delete]\u00a0[move] This is the 2011 Bottling.&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"advanced_seo_description":"","jetpack_seo_html_title":"","jetpack_seo_noindex":false,"jetpack_seo_schema_type":"","apple_news_api_created_at":"2018-12-07T17:30:32Z","apple_news_api_id":"f72d8681-5e5d-4965-828c-574c1391f961","apple_news_api_modified_at":"2018-12-07T17:30:34Z","apple_news_api_revision":"AAAAAAAAAAD\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/w==","apple_news_api_share_url":"https:\/\/apple.news\/A9y2GgV5dSWWCjFdME5H5YQ","apple_news_cover_media_provider":"image","apple_news_coverimage":0,"apple_news_coverimage_caption":"","apple_news_cover_video_id":0,"apple_news_cover_video_url":"","apple_news_cover_embedwebvideo_url":"","apple_news_is_hidden":"","apple_news_is_paid":"","apple_news_is_preview":"","apple_news_is_sponsored":"","apple_news_maturity_rating":"","apple_news_metadata":"\"\"","apple_news_pullquote":"","apple_news_pullquote_position":"","apple_news_slug":"","apple_news_sections":[],"apple_news_suppress_video_url":false,"apple_news_use_image_component":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"csco_singular_sidebar":"","csco_page_header_type":"","csco_custom_appearance":"","csco_disable_excerpt_posts_layout":false,"csco_page_load_nextpost":"","csco_post_video_location":[],"csco_post_video_location_hash":"","csco_post_video_url":"","csco_post_video_bg_start_time":0,"csco_post_video_bg_end_time":0,"_jetpack_hide_featured_image":false,"_jetpack_featured_image_duplicate_dismissed":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[160],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2018","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","category-reviews","cs-entry","cs-video-wrap"],"apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/pb3IC4-wy","jetpack-related-posts":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/adamchandler.me\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2018","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/adamchandler.me\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/adamchandler.me\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/adamchandler.me\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/adamchandler.me\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2018"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/adamchandler.me\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2018\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/adamchandler.me\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2018"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/adamchandler.me\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2018"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/adamchandler.me\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2018"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
