Jun 2, 2009 Sampled at Springslicker’s Fish Fry ’09. Clear orange amber pour with thin tan head. Flavor of hop bitterness and all the standard ’raisin, rum soaked fruits, etc’ flavors. Pretty good, but not the best barleywine i’ve had.

May 23, 2009 Tap at the brewery. A sweeter barleywine with a bit of alcohol flavor which is really nice to sip like a glass of bourbon or brandy. Amber color, no head. Slightly sweet nose. Better than average palate and overall a good brew.

May 22, 2009 Classic delicious BW. Not too over the top like a lot of them. Incredible and flavorful and very drinkable. You can down two of these easy! Nice and hoppy but I would like it a little sweeter.

Apr 28, 2009 smells fruity, sugary and of caramel. color is a purple/brown/orange. Starts sweet and a little fruity. Has a pretty hoppy finish, tastes slightly boozy, piney, and sugary. the flavor is very heavy and complex. i can identify some flavors, but the rest meld together beautifully. feels thick, and maybe a little gritty. There’s no actual grit in it from what I can tell, but the feel is there nonetheless. Quite tasty.

Apr 13, 2009 Pour was murky brown with ruby highlights. In short, I found this very enjoyable, lots of caramel, some molasses and some piney hoppiness. My bottle was a year plus old and I think this would have tasted better fresh. I was craving more hop bite which might have been there fresh. Overall, this was tasty and I’d drink it again.
