Jan 28, 2005 Slightly cloudy orange with a substantial white head, of moderate duration. Good lacing.
Nose of figs, chestnuts, and citric hops.
Chewy body, with a palate of figs, raisins, rum, and chestnuts, with an underpinning of citrusy Cascade hops. Fairly complex,and strongly flavored with a really long, mouthcoating finish. The alcohol is not obtrusive, but does build on the palate, as the bottle empties. Reminds me of a more complex Jolly Roger, from Maritime Brewing.

Mar 30, 2008 Courtesy of OldMrCrow. 04 vintage. Pours a cloudy brown with no head. Tastes of nuts, caramel, rich malt, and roasted barley. Finishes with a creamy nutty taste. Palate was extra smooth, with a thick malty feeling.

Aug 19, 2003 Updated: Aug 20, 2003Dark orange in color with an off-white-orange head. Fresh malt aromas, accented by caramel, cake, custard, vanilla, and a slight herbal hop character. Sweeeet with a cakey/creme bruleey grapefruit rind finish. Ice tea like flavors start coming out upon warm up. Good brew and a good buy.

Nov 11, 2004 Orange. Typical, expressive, well aged, barley wine aroma with an equal balance between the malt and hops providing hints of apples, fruits, caramel, harsh hops and honey. Sweet, fruity, candy like malts in the flavor with a sharp but balanced hoppiness that gave notes of pine, resin and orange. Damn, this stuff was tasty.

Aug 28, 2005 Poours with an amber body topped by a thick head with a good amount of lacing. It’s sweet and malty with nice caramel and candy sugar notes with a nice peppery hop note in the background. Full bodied, smooth and a touch dry.
