Poured a medium and cloudy golden color with a very larged sized, frothy white head. Aromas of caramel, citrus, floral, and herbal. Tastes of caramel, citrus, the same herbalness, and fruity. Light alcohol in the finish but overall very well hidden. hopscotch (5506), Vero Beach, Florida, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Dec 29, 2006 Draft... Clear, deep amber ale with a huge, off-white head. Terrific retention. Nose of toffee, fuzzy fruit and pine. Earthy, sweet flavor. Nicely bittered, but the hops don’t cut too deeply into the malt. Full-bodied and syrupy with subtle carbonation. Sweet, boozy finish. Dries out at the wee end. beerbuzzmontreal (2911), Montreal, Quebec, Canada

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Aug 13, 2006 light brown color off white head. Some hot hop alcohol dominates grass and light citrus aromas. AVg palate. Overly dry grassy flavor weak sweet carmel malts. Very boring bordering on bad BW.

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Aug 15, 2006 Tap @ GTMW 2006. Semi-translucent and caramel bronze in color with an icy grey sheaf on top and a few sporadic bubbles. Sweet orange marmalade glazes marigolds and baguettes, aromatically meeting orange hearts and spruced pines. Forestry bittered flavor aligns with tropically sugar-sweetened corn flakes. Fairly massive mouth feel hinges on orange liveliness and buttery amaretto sweetness. A bit of a barleywine letdown, with a chalky chocolate toffee trail and perfumed maple nut fudge brick follow-through into the finish. Styles (1653), Lincoln Park, Michigan, USA

Malt taste up front with some fruit in the middle and a bittersweet finish. Just o.k. for a barley wine. walleye (879), Sterling Heights, Michigan, USA
