Sep 20, 2009 Pretty good barrel aged barley wine. Semi sweet malts with plenty of bitter hops balanced well with the boozy barrel character. A bit on the light bodied side with an oily slickness.

Aug 18, 2009 OK. This is a bummer. Why did they alias the bourbon barrel aged version to the regular? Whatever. 18 bottles in existence? Wow. 2005. Malty, amber color, Buttery oaky sweetness. Seaoffloydster tasting.

Jul 26, 2009 Thanks to Savvy1982 for sharing. Pours s hazy burnt orange with a large white head. Aroma is very fruity and bourbony. Pineapple, oak, vanilla, coconut, starfruit, strawberries, and musty orange peels. It tastes very bourbony as well. Loads of oak, vanilla, pineapple, caramel, and lots of coconut... Not a huge fan of coconut. But still nice tasting. Mouth feel is quite nice. Decent.

Jul 26, 2009 Bottle. Pours dark cherry red, with an eggshell head, and spotty lacing at best, head is persistent though. Nose is very fruity and bourbony. Fresh, ripe, pineapple, booze/bourbon, hops, and oak in the nose. Palate is more oak, sour cherries, soft fruit, quite good, and better than it smells. Good, but the bourbon really takes over on this one.

Jul 26, 2009 750 ml bottle poured a clear brown with a lingering ring of tan foam. Aromas of carmel, fruittiness, vanilla and light oxidation. Palate was light to medium bodied and smooth with a dry finish. Flavors of carmel, toffee, light fruittiness, light vanilla and light oak with a smooth dry malty finish.

Jul 8, 2009 Bottle sample at Muckfest 2009 Day 1. Pours cloudy amber with a thin tan head. Grainy malt aroma with a bit of fruit and smoke. Grainy malt and corn flavor up front followed by sugary caramel before the boozy finish.

Jul 5, 2009 Bottle shared at Muckfest 2009 in Lancaster Ohio. Our bottle noted the "Barrel aged and cask conditioned". Pour was a thick murky ruby color. Sweet aroma of cotton candy. Flavor was carmel, malts, brown sugar and vanilla. My favorite kind of barley wine. SWEET. Slight warming on the back end. I do question calling this a barley wine though!
