DH and I received a Vertical tasting of Alaskan Smoked Porter as a wedding present a few years ago (from one of the brewers) and are looking forward to enjoying it!

The only place in my area that keeps aged ale in regular rotation is The General Lafayette Inn in Lafayette Hill. They usually will have Scotch ales, bigger porters and stoudts, and higher alcohol Belgian-style ales available that are anywhere between 1-3 years old. Delicious and complex. It will make you think.
