Apr 22, 2009 This was at the Peoria Beer Festival. I was a server that got to sample a couple beers. I didn’t take notes like I should have.

Apr 19, 2009 Nice ruby red color. A boozy and swoozy kind of brew with a malty and woodsy aroma. The bitterness and booze blots out some of the subtler flavors, but I’m a sucker for barleywines.

Apr 14, 2009 2008 bottle .. . light meaty molasses in the smell .. wow, pretty rough- needs time or something .. speech speech .. not the most elegant barleywine but simple and drinkable .. this is decent, a good intro into barleys and for the abv, not bad ... . . I’ve done alot of things I’m not proud of, and the rest are disgusting!

Apr 12, 2009 Bottle from 2007, drunk here in April 2009. Strong nose dominated by fruity hues, very ripe/overripe, sweet and thick. Grapefruit, pear, peach, grape, yum yum yum! Malt and hops both in spades, some caramel and light booze. Orange-ruby pour with the typical perfect tan head. Dulled, matted taste, still very sweet but with the center sucked out, distinct aromatics are a bit more muddled, light bitterness and faded caramel. Light warming, alcohol isn’t too bad in the beginning but gets annoying quickly. Medium body with a little hop prickling toward the end. Just can’t get excited.

Apr 8, 2009 Pours mahogany / brown with a tannish head. The aroma has sweet malt, roasted malt, cream and lots of dark caramel. Medium body with not much to it and some semi-soft carbonation. The flavor starts with some dark malt, caramel and light spice. The finish is musty and has some cardboard. Okay.

Mar 30, 2009 On draft at bodega. Aroma had a nice hop presense, this must have been pretty fresh. The first taste of this actually reminded me of bigfoot a little bit. It was similar in a hop forward barleywine style. Had a nice color that left some lacing that actually got hard in the sunlight. A pretty tastey beer overall.
