Bradrcr (778), Renton, Washington, USA Aug 9, 2007 8/8/07 From the bottle. Aroma is sweet malt mixed with an amazing amount of dried fruit, primarily raisins and plums, followed by some smooth alcohol notes. Appearance is dark brown, with a low tan head. Flavor is dried fruity malt forward with caramel, toffee, raisins and more smooth alcohol. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with lots of warmth. Overall, a neat beer that I can only simply describe as a lagered barleywine.
