The last time the Pats won the Super Bowl in 2005, I placed a Pats sticker on a magnum of Holiday beer from Anchor. I vowed not to open this beer until the Pats go the Super Bowl again. Last night, I shared it with a couple of friends. Best beer I have ever tasted. I have not had an aged beer like that and it was truly amazing. Incredible at 58 degrees, like milk and chocolate and the bubbles are intensely refined. A true moment.

Moses-
Very cool. I have a few past "vintages" of Sierra Nevada Bigfoot (their barleywine) in my cellar, and it is very interesting to experience a beer that ages well. I have a couple vintages of my own barleywine, which is even more fun to track over the years.
Good luck to your Pats. I don't have a dog in this fight, and am just hoping that it's one of the rare interesting Superbowl games.
Cheers,
