Pre ABInBev, and worth the spot in the cellar. From the beginning, my favorite vintage of this, and it's in a great place now. Fruit and sour are fully integrated, funk is just enough to round out the brisk acidity. Not sure this is going to get better, but no hurry, either. Current editions don't seem to live up to the '11.

From before the ABInBev buyout. Hitting its stride and in amazing balance right now.
