Dec 15, 2003 How do you not like a barley wine with this name? Well, I guess you don't have to, but I did. Nice brown color smooth as my girl friends ThunderP*ssy.

Dec 15, 2003 Updated: Jan 14, 2005dark amber & clear with sweet molassis melted into pine needles with a fruity background of cherries & pineapple...it was watery at first with a sweet and bitter hop battle upon the tongue..thickening the mouthfeel...subtle sweet pine cake with solid but balanced bitterness...the main problem i had with this beer was the lack of creamy body..definitely needs a year or 3 to age.

Dec 12, 2003 Dark amber color. Small head. Aroma is malty, sweet and fruity. A medium bodied barleywine. Malts are nutty and sweet. Hops are spicy. Nicely balanced. Very smooth taste. Touches of orange and vanilla. Nice beer, but the salty finish kind of ruins everything else. Mouthfeel is full and round. Finish is clean and dry. Aftertaste is slightly bitter and salty.

Dec 9, 2003 Sampled @ Strong Ale Fest San Diego
As it set in my sample glass, an unblurred brown or deep mahogany if you’re so inclined with a smallish light tan head, that was spumous in texture, the lace quite thin. Nose was sweet malt with hints of fusel alcohol, caramel, pleasant as noses go with the start quite sweet and malt laden and the top moderate in feel. Finish had a lenient carbonation, the hops purposeful in their spiciness, quite dry and somewhat salty aftertaste, drinkable but not a great barleywine as one would expect from the “Name”!

Dec 6, 2003 What a nice name this brew brings with it. Actually pretty damn good for a barleywine. Wasn't over jagered in the flavor, kinda smooth and hid the alcohol well. Not bad at all.
