Tall head and lots of carbonation for the style. Sweet malt with some fruit and moderate hops. Thick, heavy palate. Some citrus. Not bad at all. Thanks to Skyview for yet another growler.

Thanks to Skyview. Clear amber pour with a dirty white head. Slightly hot nose with a variety of fruits. Caramel and fruits in the taste with a dry finish.

(growler from Skyview) Pours reddish brown with a scant white head. The aroma is really pleasant, with strong scents of caramel, raisin, wood, vanilla, and coconut blending very well together. The taste is not as good as the aroma, but there’s nothing offensive about it at all. The main flavors were caramel, molasses, cherry, with really little to none of the bourbon and wood that I smelled before. Palate is a little thin for a barleywine, but doesn’t detract at all. This is a very well done beer.

A growler courtesy of Skyview. Bob commented that he was told this was 11% ABV. Copper color with a thin head. Aroma of brown sugar. Caramel and chocolate malt flavors. A bit of fresh grain. Not incredibly sweet and the alcohol is pretty well hidden for 11%.

On draught at the brewpub/restaurant in Whitewater, Wisconsin. Pours a clear coppery amber brew with a fast dissolving off-white head that returns a thin ring and no film top. Aroma of light raisin, some dark pitted fruit, vanilla and a touch of bourbon. Taste is full body, very light carbonation with very sweet flavors of raisins, sweetened caramel malt, and plenty of alcohol. Finish is quite warm/metallic (from high alcohol) with an aftertaste os semi-sweet brown sugar and raisins.

Clear brown body. Slightly buttery, fruity marris otter aroma (cherry, raspberry - red fruits). The falvor has bright apple/raspberry caramel malt under peppery alcohol and light grassy hops. A bit thin but an enjoyable drink.

Pours to a clear mahogany body with no head. The aroma has notes of bourbon, vanilla, oak, and maris otter. The flavor is strong vanilla oak chips, nice malt backbone. Bourbon and fruity. The palate is medium-light bodied, a little much bourbon is noticed. A valiant attempt at a barley wine in BFE. I’d say this is the best they have to offer.
