Terrapin Reunion 2010

Terrapin Reunion 2010 refers to itself as a Belgian Style Scotch Ale on the label. Aged about 2 years and I’m a little worried how this one has held up over that time. Rather sweet with dominate flavors of caramel and mild dark fruits. The hops and any affects of the Belgian yeast have all but disappeared, but this is still a fine tasting Scotch Ale. I may never know how this tasted fresh, but I am glad I found a bottle to taste at all! Terrapin (now in collaboration with Shmaltz Brewing) brew Reunion each year in memory of their friend and partner Virginia MacLean, Virginia lost her battle withMultiple Myeloma in 2007 and this project helps raise funds and awareness.
