Jun 12, 2009 Draft at Bishops Arms - Clear amber beer with a small head. Aroma is sweet with notes of oranges, fruits, spices and black currant. Flavor is very sweet with hints of overripe fruit and spices. Very full-bodied and sweet but not very bitter compared to most American Barley Wines. Very good!

Jun 8, 2009 Bright red, lightly frothy ale. Very bright malty aromas. Strawberry/raspberry tartness followed by a thick honey sweetness. Very rich, with a real hoppy dryness that makes the mouth clench up. Pink/red fruit flavours. The finish is very, very long and quite intense. Heavy fruits and brandy booziness. Sort of like a light Christmas pudding. Pretty tasty, it would probably rock my world in winter.

May 25, 2009 Have had new bottles and old one, recently a nip, not sure of the year. Aroma is nice and sweet, semi fruity and a a little rich. Nice body. Taste is smooth and mostly sweet with a little bitterness balancing it out even the aged ones. For a large quantity barleywine I think it is very good.
