Aug 31, 2007 Dark brown color. A very well hopped barleywine, but there is also sweet malt for balance. The alcohol is well hidden adn it is not appear to be as strong as it really is. Well balanced with the malt and hops.

Aug 30, 2007 Picked up a 22-oz bomber of the 2006 vintage at Bottleworks in Seattle, Washington. Pours a clear reddish amber brew with a creamy off-white head that quickly dissolves to a fine film. Aroma of sweet caramel malt, oak wood, dark pitted fruits and some flowery hops. Taste is syrupy, full bodied with hardly any carbonation; along with flavors of caramel malt, dark red cherries, brown sugar and a touch of toffee. Finish is where the high alcohol kicks in. Very smooth, a warm sensation with a cherry and caramel aftertaste. An awesome barely wine and it didn’t need a lot of aging.

Aug 22, 2007 Bottle: Dark amber, nice amber head, light lacing. Nose of bright alcohol and fruit, some fresh berry. The flavor is sweet and full of pie crust, lots of blueberry and chokeberries. Cloud berry maybe? Teriyaki wood, butter. The finish is chicoryish with some smoke and burnt toffee. Hot. Fairly bitter.
