Commercial Description:
Big malty flavors, including licorice and chocolate, are balanced with a moderate hop profile. Brewed with copious amounts of prized malts and flaked oats, the Barley Wine is so strong that it has to be aged for several months before we can bottle it. Like a fine wine, it will continue to improve with age up to 2 years after bottling (If kept cool).

330ml Bottle. Pours dark amber with very small head that was gone in seconds. Tastes is like malts, alcohol, fruits. Nice beer for coming cold nights.

12oz bottle pours a hazy dark burgundy color, with a minamal amount of tan head. There was not as much of an alcohol warmth as I would expect from a 10.5% brew. Another good Flying Dog beer.

Bottle--vintage 2007. Dark red pour with thin tan head. Sugary, caramel aroma with slight hop notes. Solid maltiness with toffee flavor. Alcohol adds to aroma about mid-glass. Not overpowering but slight bitterness at finish. Good barleywine style from Flying Dog.

Botle. Pours a dark amber colour with an tan head. Aroma is fruity with notes of cascade hops. The flavour is quite salty with notes of caramel, grapefruit and alcohol. Bitter finish. An OK BW.

12oz bottle from Kingdom Liquors (Tampa, FL). Pours a dark brown amber color with reddish orange highlights and a thin off-white head. Aroma is sweet and malty with notes of bourbon, booze, ripe dark fruit, tart cherries, hints of vanilla, brown sugar and hints of caramel and light spice. Flavor is sweet and malty with notes of booze, brown sugar, molasses, ripe dark fruit, and hints of chocolate and anise. Generally medium body with a carbonated finish.

Caramel sweet aroma with fruity taste and light chocolate and wood note. Bit bitter. Sweetness balanced with strong warm alcohol flavour. Red-brown body. Very light carbonated.

A different taste from most barleywines, no alcohol burn in the after taste. I like this one it was a good overall barleywine, very complex but different.
