Dec 10, 2009 20091210 11.2 oz bottle from State Line. Clear, pale amber, with small, fleeting white head. Was disappointed to see that this barley wine appears to be heavily filtered. Aroma is pretty straightforward maltiness, sweet but mild stone fruit, honey, with some light alcohol. Body is light and thin for a barley wine with a mild alcoholic heat that lingers. No bitterness. Flavor is equally meek, mostly sweet, bland, thin, with some fresh plum and late yeasty earthiness.

Dec 9, 2009 330ml bottle. Strongly sweet malty aroma, toasty and honeyish with lighter notes of caramel, floral, spicy hops, alcohol and touches of tobacco, dried apricot and golden raisin. Attractive medium golden amber color with a very slight head and some fine lacing. Flavor is predominantly malty as well, with honey, brown sugar, a certain spicy, herbal bitterness, peppery alcohol and touches of fruit and dried flowers in the background. Nicely balanced for all of the focus put on the malts here. Warming, active mouthfeel, body is rich and full. Interesting and flavorful, overall.

Nov 14, 2009 9th June 2008. Unusual barleywine in as much as it doesn’t wrestle you to teh ground. Low carbonation. Sweetish smooth malt. I felt like I was drinking a strong bock more than a barleywine. Very drinkable.

Nov 8, 2009 Thought it smelled of straw or some type of grain. Powerful brew. Definitely hints of grape in the taste.. Nothing exceptional. Different than barely wines I’ve had before.

Oct 25, 2009 33cl from Knightly Spirits (Orlando, FL). Pours a fairly clear amber to copper color with one finger off-white head that settles slowly. Aroma is sweet and malty with notes of caramel, toffee, candy sugar, ripe dark fruit, fresh tree fruit, hints of apple and light brandy. Flavor is sweet and malty with similar notes of toffee, caramel, honey, light floral esters. Generally medium body with a sweet and malty finish.
