This vintage brew was carefully preserve and tended to for 5 years before being release as a special treat to loyal Mad Anthony customers. As a limited release it is no longer available until maybe next year if Todd still has some around, which he is not saying at this time. It is truely an exceptional brew. Into a snifter it was poured forming a small sized head of tan colored fine to medium sized mostly diminishing bubbles with an orange tint. The head quickly diminished to fully diminished leavbing behind a semi-transparent uncarbonated dark orange brown colored body and a thin oily lacing. It had a nice vinous malt hop aroma. The mouth feel was tingly from start to finish with a deep hoopy flavored aftertase that soon mellowed into a delightful smooth hoop flavor. The aftertase was all barley wine and the aging had done it wonders for its smoothness. The flavor contained notes of mild mellow vinous hops with a good hoopy note worthy of a wonderful brew. Its strong alcohol content, I am guessing at around 10%, was not biting or too hoppy. Truely a great work Todd. I was very fortunate to be able to get this rare sample!
