Oct 27, 2007 Poured a hazy copper color with a thin off-white head. Sweet and fruity malt with some citrusy hop towards the finish that turns to a bitterness. The aroma matches the flavor. Sweet and fruity. Medium bodied.

Oct 21, 2007 Pours gold with a smooth white head. Good sweet barleywine, this had been aged for almost a year but still was a bit hot, could go for a few more to improve more. Soft caramel palate with a earthy bready finish and moderate citrus hops. Overall, nice barleywine, aged well so far and will continue to do so.

Oct 13, 2007 Cloudy, dark gold pour with short pale head. Very sweet with cognac, chocolate and raisin flavours. Good body. Clean, hoppy finish, no lace. A shade more hops and it would rival Bigfoot!

Oct 6, 2007 2006 Vintage, 12-oz bottle from Bottleworks in Seattle, Washington. Pours a semi-clear light brownish amber brew with a decent off-white head that has a slow dissolve that leaves behind an excellent lacing and bubbly foamy top. Aroma of sweet caramel malt, vanilla, a touch of toffee and some dark pitted fruits. Taste is syrupy, full bodied, very light carbonation with lots of grapefruit, raisin and caramel flavors. Finish is bitter with a sweet raisin aftertaste that is followed by a nice alcohol warmth that is well hidden in the lingering fresh bitterness flavor.
