Mar 13, 2005 Thanks to npdempse for this. Pours turbid copper with medium off-white head and some floaties. Aroma of malt, cereal, wheat, some fruit, cognac, scotch....an overall barleywinish aroma. Tastes malty, with fruitiness, some hops, and more cognac/cabernet.scotch. Dense finish, with dryness abounding. Very complex. Very good.

Mar 12, 2005 Clear amber body with a late-arriving but big white head. Tangy wheat aroma - melon, powdered sugar, and caramel malt. Big rich malt flavor - round fruity wheat with spicy pine hops and melon/banana fruit. A very drinkable malt-oriented BW, very similar to Bare Tree Weiss.

Mar 12, 2005 an amber gold color w/ a tall thick white head that laced well. A hopy malty citrus and wheat scent. The palate had a full mouth feel w/ good creaminess and a light carbonation. The flavor was a sweet malt w/ a hint of carmel and a bit of a spicy floral style hop finish. Overall a good sweet beer, but a little to sweet for my barley wine needs.

Mar 5, 2005 With flowers, slight malt and citrus on the nose, I also detected a slight alcohol ester. The flavor was full of flowers and candy w/ citrus, malts, and dark fermented fruit. The beer poured a golden orange color w/ thin lasting head and lacing. The mouthfeel was creamy w/ a medium body.

Feb 24, 2005 Bottle - A beautiful, deep dirty gold. Minimal white head. Surprisingly little aroma for a barleywine. Malt sweetness and musty wheat. Really interesting! I like this beer. I like the wheat in a big beer - first time I’ve had it. Very few hops in the nose or flavor, but - as I’ve said before - I love malty barleywines.
