Nov 2, 2009 One huge remarkable beer. I could tell from the second I uncapped this one that this was going to be mighty tasty. Maltier than many double-I’s I’ve tried with robust hops from start to finish.

Nov 2, 2009 Another good one from DFH. Poured a bright orange color. Nose was more hoppy than the 90 minute. Also, citrus, floral, barley and pine. Taste was like the smell; more hoppy than its brother, the 90 minute. A very delicious beer, wish I would’ve grabbed two...

Oct 28, 2009 Pours a bright, clear orange from the 12oz. bottle: The complexity in the hops shine through and alcohol seems to be more and more present than the preceding sip. And of course you get the usual earthy, pine needles, citrus pith flavors in the mouthfeel. If somebody told me this was straight up barleywine I would believe them. Medium carbonation. Drinkability: This beer was gone in less than a minute (while rating at the same time). It’s a dangerous downer. Rebuy: Yes. #168 on 28102009, DG.

Oct 28, 2009 This is a great beer i truly enjoyed it, i was a bit pessamistic because i dislike the 90 min so much but the oak age and added hops balanced it out very well. it can be a bit richer but overall a great beer although very expensive.

Oct 27, 2009 Aroma: Citrus, floral, sweet candies, malt and oak. Smells awesome but it’s -1 for not being strong enough. Appearance: Clear reddish-copper color. Flavor: Oak, pine hops, sweet malts, bready. Palate: medium body, sticky, lively, bitter/sweet finish. Overall: I like this beer alot. It’s really good and I llike the oak influence on this beer. Good stuff!

Oct 25, 2009 Trade bottle from GMCC2181(GABE). Got to share this with a few friends. Aroma of caramel, citrus, sweet hints of oak. Taste was hoppy, malty, sweet, and alcohol. Appearance was nice clear amber with bubbly white head. Pallet was medium and sticky. Overall very good.

Oct 23, 2009 12oz local bottle. Clear boronze colour with a small white head and some lacing. Aroma is actually more malt than hop plus some alcohol and syrup. The flavour includes some pineapple, more alcohol and some wood in the finish.

Oct 22, 2009 12oz bottle from 4-pack at home on October 22, 2009. Burton Baton is the smell of divinity. Its appearance is deceiving. It looks clear, but it’s not. The glow of its golden orange color with reddish hues looks clean, yet thick. The head: fine and light, off-white, and bubbly. Lacing is sticky and solid, sliding down the edge of the glass slowly, but surely. Aroma of hops and malt with hints of oak. This bouquet travels... it’s potent and awesome. The mouthfeel a little sticky and sweet with a delicious amount of hops. A little of the oak comes through, but just enough to tint the flavor. Mixing it 50/50 with their 90 minute IPA was a great idea. This beer is easy to drink, delicious, and beautiful beer. Pleasant finish, addictive, wish I could drink this every day.
