Nov 21, 2009 I believe this was compliments of Stevey, anyways, it poured an orange/amber hue, formed small off beige head of foam. Aroma was more pungent of hops, pine resins and malt. The flavour was that of an Imperial IPA, much smoother than most BW beers, hops and malty caramel goodness balance this beer, making abv well hidden, thus dangerous. Most excellent beer.

Nov 14, 2009 2009, blue wax edition: Amber, orange colored brew. Aroma is exotic fruits, orange, some citric, floral hops. Flavor is hoppy, citric, floral, some grapefruit. Hops are really nice. For a brew it’s really nice, for a barleywine it misses some characteristics, could be more silky and smooth, less hops and more warming alcohol. It’s more imperial IPA, then a barleywine. Still very enjoyable ofcourse.

Nov 14, 2009 Bottle from 2008. A nose of jam, strawberries, toffee, oak and alcohol. Taste is of strawberries, cookie, soil and a lot of funk, almost too much. Finish is salty and bitter and has a bit of alcohol in it. A solid BW.

Nov 12, 2009 Bottle from Bierkoning. Copper body with a sweet and hoppy nose, including grapefruit. Sweet taste with lots of malts. Nice citrus notes. And plenty of ABV to go around. Nice balance to it.
