Trader Joe's 2010 Vintage Ale

DSC03449

Brewed by Unibroe

The last time I purchased one of trader joe's vintage ales was when I lived by myself in Cleveland Park. I remember it being over-carbonated and fairly bland. The recipe changes each year, so I'm not sure whether its my palate that's changed or the 2006 actually was terrible.

The 2010 is actually pretty enjoyable. Decent amount of carbonation (although it did take a few minutes to get the cork out). Figs, raisins, etc. dominate the taste. Good deal at the price, as I'm pretty sure I paid $5 for it.
