| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 17/20 | Mar 23, 2008 Orange/amber pour with no head. Big, spicy alcoholic malt nose. Spicy malt flavor, too, with a dash of added honeyed sweetness. Mildly astringent yet syrupy on the palate. Wow. Excellent. railcat1 (582), Orlando, Florida, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Mar 21, 2008 This was a bottle of 2007 version,it was still very raw or imature but with ageing it would be excellant,it was a hoppy and sweet tasteing beer with a hot and bitter ending,this would be much better in 2 years but i could not wait.CHEERS! t4h2c0 (82), seattle, Washington, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Mar 17, 2008 Seems to vary quite a bit from year to year. I’ve had it out of vintage bottles that did not age well and some that did age well. Anything before 2003 seems a bit funky. Hoppy for a barleywine. Easy drinker that will warm you up fast!! Consistency is a problem here, past few years seem to be similar though. good beer. ekstedt (2456), Göteborg, Sweden
