Looked a lot like a Barleywine. Drank this beer way too young, it just wasn’t ready. Had some sweetness & spice to it, but the flavor was very rough, almost had a musty/wooday presemce to it. Kind of a thick consistancy. Needs some time to mellow out, I’d recomend several more years. thenick (746), North Bellmore, New York, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Sep 30, 2007 Vintage 2006. Pours a deep ruby color with a barely-there head. Syrup consistency, almost like a heavy liqueur. Aroma is dark malt with a yeast and hop characteristic. The flavor is largely malt with yeast included as well. Very thick beer, and the thickness somewhat takes away from the overall experience. i had great expectations of this beer, but it left me a tad disappointed. Proteus (98), Finland

Great aroma of yeast and dark malts. This beer just melts in your mouth! Excellent! Great beer with a flavor of blue cheese and yeasts, very smooth and extremely well-balanced. Nice thick finish of malt and notes of hops. This is something you have to keep in a cellar! french tickler (642), Aylmer, Quebec, Canada

The aroma is malty with fruity notes (plums) and a touch of alcohol. The flavour is very sweet and fruity with warming alcohol and a character that is both vinous and strong sweet wineish. Full bodied, almost no bitterness. A very good beer that gains after every sip. Ingy (100), candler, North Carolina, USA
