Dec 17, 2008 On tap tonight, winter sampling at Acadia. Golden brown pour with a nice quarter inch head. Smell was hoppy, which was a little surprising for a barleywine. Tast was good, very herbal with noticable juniper and aftertaste of alcohol. Not the best barleywine, but worth finding on tap. I have a feeling this one will grow on me.

Dec 7, 2008 20080329 Blind tasting notes and score from Cornboy 2nd annual Barleywine Extravaganza. Bit oxidized but still some life in it. Decent, balanced, simple. Proof you do not have to blow the doors off to make a serviceable, drinkable, yet still very strong ale.

Nov 20, 2008 This is a nice, pale barley wine. Pours straw color with a thin white head. Light aroma, but the flavor is nice. Hints of vanilla and fruits. Layered nicely with a spicy hop finish. It’s a good beer by the fire.

Sep 29, 2008 Updated: Nov 19, 2008ABR ’08 - Poured golden with a moderate off white head. The nose is pretty bland, with wet cardboard and grains with little hops. Came across the palate about the same pretty much the same. This sis the second time I tried it and I’ve come to realize that I do not like Golden English style Barley-wines. Delirium Tremes Tastes similar; not a fan.
