Apr 27, 2008 Aroma of maltr and some spicy rye behind the upfront hops. Loads of both spicy, grassy and citrussy hops.
The flavour is the same, except for the fruity esters and floral flavours.
Very delicious and quite unorthodox for a barley wine. The spicy and estery tones nearly continental instead of Amarican...

Apr 26, 2008 A- Pours a cloudy peachy orange color with a small head which sits on top for quite a while.
S- Smell isn’t too strong but it’s sort of rosy, floralesque.
T- Sweet, quite a bit of alcohol yeasty floral notes with a hop kick in the ass at the end.
M- Thick with decent carbonation.
D- Definitely my favorite hair of the dog beer yet. I honestly didnt dig adam or rose whatsoever but this one really came together well. I wouldn’t categorize it as american barleywine but then again none of the hair of the dog beers ive had so far really fit in to the commonly accepted categories they are placed in and I commend the brewer on that.

Apr 25, 2008 Pours a subsistent copper yellow. The head is less than a finger thick, creamy, light yellow. The aroma is sweet, fruity, smells like sherry, alcohol, caramel, spicy rye. The flavor is big and spicy, rye, hoppy, citrusy, waxy, warm alcohol, rich. Very nice warm spicy mouthfeel, goes down a little hot. Very nice barley wine.

Apr 20, 2008 Deep shade of gold. Way to much carbonation. Had a huge pop when i pulled the cap and was overflowing with foam. Big malty profile, taste is very sweet. Though i don’t like the finish on this one because of the distinct alcohol flavor. I think this would be much better if it was aged a while longer.

Apr 19, 2008 Dark amber color and a super persistent head. Distinct aroma of caramel. Sticky sugary sweet fruit flavors but just enough hops to keep it from being cloying. Very nice.
