Nice and sweet malty aroma with lots of caramel and a touch of hops. Flavor is again dominated by the caramel malt(in a great way) with a bitter hoppy finish. Very nice. footbalm (1218), Salt Lake City, Utah, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Nov 28, 2005 Bottle from odeed I think!! Pours a golden/copper with a lot of bubbles. has a strong hoppy nose with a big blast of sweet candied fruit. Nice in the mouthfeel dept. The sweetness of this is nicely offset by the hops and alcohol. zebracakes (1215), Washington DC, USA

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Dec 11, 2005 smells like the ocean and your average barley wine, with some cherry licorice. Flavor is much the same. A little hoppy and refreshing feel rather than the heaviness I’m used to after a barleywine, so that was nice. Nice sweet flavors balanced well.

| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | May 10, 2008 22 oz. from Knightly Spirits. This is a great Barleywine. It has the typical barleywine aroma with notes of caramel, raisins, and alcohol potency. Strong flavors of raisins and brown sugar. It is not as severely hopped as some other BW’s, so its finish is not as abrasive. Good stuff. Hopistotle420 (1178), Amherst, Massachusetts, USA

Sweet alcohol nose, sherry, pineapple, caramel, bubblegum, grapefruity pith, resin. Syrupy body is mouthcoating and quite perfect. Chewy caramel malts, toffee, brandy, bubblegum again, syrupy chewy body, finishing with lusciously bitter hops. Very nicely done. Great balance, great alcohol, great brew, great brewery...What else can I say?
