| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | May 26, 2007 Half bottle in pint glass. Pours dark amber with small head, little lacing. Faint malt aroma perceptible through the alcohol that burns my nosehairs. Sweet malty start cut off by immediate extremely dry finish. Flavor is practically done before it starts. Seems like it should last longer, especially as it claims to be English-style. Medium-full bodied. Probably would improve with aging. Dorwart (1831), Robbinsville, New Jersey, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | May 26, 2007 Thin, frothy off-white head. Dissipates quickly. Very good carbonation for a BW. Caramel, sweet malts and a bit vegetal in there. Hmmm. Decent hops in the aroma. Mostly decaying grass hops aroma. Color is a medium brownish orange with good clarity. Sweet and malty with a little bit of caramel and sawdust. Kind of sickly sweet. Big alcohol presence that makes the gums tingle. Finishes warm and slick. Not a very good barleywine. jrob21 (1283), Atlanta, Georgia, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | May 12, 2007 Nice color. Very alcoholic. Syrupy caramel aroma. Some vanilla and plum but mostly alcohol in the taste. I usually look for a little more well balanced beer. SynergyXJ (506), Blacksburg, Virginia, USA

Alchohol is well hidden. Pretty thin mouthfeel for a barleywine. Decent, but not great. Saarlander (1589), Rancho Cucamonga, California, USA
