Nov 10, 2006 Growler: Orange in color with a white head. Aroma, citrus and earthy hops, some malt to it in the back ground. Flavor, caramel and brown sugar up front, and then a big citrusy and earthy bitterness kicks in. Really nice, alcohol isn’t very apparent. Damn this is good stuff.

Nov 7, 2005 This is easily the most bitter, hoppiest barleywine I’ve had. My parents hate it, but their just Weak! I like it, but not quite as much as their stout.

Oct 22, 2005 On tap at Alehouse #1 - Pours deep amber cloudy with a fair offwhite head. Aroma of caramel malts. toffee, and a shade of c-hops. Flavor is big bold robust caramel malts, a bit of vanilla, blended beautifully with some nice grapefruit hops. Palate is thick and hearty as a barly wine should be. Smooth and very drinkalble though.. Only a bit of the alcohol can be found.> This is good!

Oct 10, 2005 Off of the firkin cask this beer was copper hued. Due to cask conditioning the pint was less than clear but the palate was divine. with a slight naturally carbonated head. Aroma is strong. The ale is well balanced for a strong ale (12%).

Jan 9, 2005 Hand bottled courtesy of JCW.Pours a copper-rust,clear with no head.The aromas off this can all be easily defined as toffee or caramel,syrupy malts,bananas and a light dusting of hops.Nice,tasting this I was happily surprised that the hops play a nice roll in offsetting some of the sweetness of the malts.I was expecting much more syrupiness.Nice body and mouthfeel.Thanks again John for two very good brews.

Jan 8, 2005 Pours a clear copper/orange hued brew with small offwhite head that takes a short ride. Nose of sweet malts, fruity, light melon notes. Medium body, slick. Flavors of toffee, light honey, sweet malts, caramel, some alcohol bite and faint hop notes in the background. Finish is medium sweet with the hops and alcohol adding a goodly nip in the end. Thanks go out to JCW for a hand bottled 12ozer of this lovely brew. Thanks John!

Jan 5, 2005 Fruity aroma - mix of hops and esters. Amber color, off-white head. Rich, complex flavor, sweet malt, ripe fruit, citrus, hops, hop bitterness, and peppery alcohol (in that order). Full bodied, syrupy. Best offering from Barley’s on the night I was there.

Dec 31, 2004 Initially, when cold, this is a syrupy sweet mess. When warmed, it does indeed get grainy and hop bitterness blasts through. Good but not great. Slippery mouthfeel. High alcohol.
