May 25, 2008 Pours burgandy with a small white head. Aroma of malt, hops, fruit. Taste is caramel, fruits, malt, some hops, spices.......very sweet, but with sweetness there is a nice balance. This is a tasty barleywine, actually it’s damn tasty. I just wish I could afford to drink it more often.

Apr 26, 2008 Bottled. A clear light amber beer with a huge and quite persistent white head. The aroma is fruity, hoppy, with notes of caramel and citric fruits. The alcohol is felt. The flavour is very sweet, maybe a bit sticky, but not cloying. Vinous, oily and quite thick. Notes of caramel, dried fruits and alcohol. Soft mouthfeel, almost full body, soft/average carbonation, long finish with hight sweetness and light bitterness. A more than decent beer.

Apr 22, 2008 I can’t really detect and aroma other than slight malt and barley. Appearance is a dark amber with a large head that laces the glass nicely. The flavor is wonderful- very sweet with hints of molasses, chocolate, and caramel. Smooth to the palate- overall a wonderful barley wine. One of my favorites so far.
