Jul 20, 2007 500 mL. Slight haze on the copper-amber body with a large lasting foam above. Sweetish evergreen and slight citrus in the robust nose. Flavor is similar at first, then melts into a nice bitterness that last to the finish. Palate is medium-bodied, smooth, and fairly balanced: only slightly syrupy.

Jul 13, 2007 This beer poured a deep reddish brown with thin tan head. The aroma is of dark fruits, caramel, and hops. The flavor follows the same with the sweet flavors from the fruits and caramel upfront with a big hoppy bitterness in the background. As the beer warmed up the hops calmed down a bit, but they were still noticeable. This was definitely a full bodied beer that packed quite a punch. Had a nice creamy mouthfeel that finished with the hops and sweetness in the aftertaste. It was different for a barley wine, but the hops worked in this case and smoothed out nicely. Very nice brew.

Jul 6, 2007 A Great Barley-Wine ale. the caramel malts and hops make a great combination. The head is a dark brown and orange. The bitterness, the high IBU’s, is a great addition for this Barley Wine.
