Apr 5, 2008 Decent sized bright white head of fine bubbles. Looking at this as it was being poured I do not have high hopes for this "barley wine". Very thin body. Sweet candy aroma with some sweet tarts, dusty attic, and any semblence of sweet cherry, which appears upon swirling, disappears almost immediately. Color is a clear golden orange. Sweet and thin with a dry palate. Alcohol does not show up until late. Sweet malts and more candy. Pretty weak flavor. Finishes clean and dry with a lingering warming. Again another dissapointment from this brewer. very easy drinking though.

Mar 30, 2008 Clear amber with medium off white head. Sweet fruity aroma with ripe fruits, caramel and alcohol notes. Same goes for the somewhat boozy flavor. Ends sweet.

Mar 26, 2008 Bottled. An amber beer with a lazing orange/tan head. The aroma is sweet mlaty with notes of caramel and alcohol. The flavor is sweet alcoholic combined with a light note of fruit. The alcohol burns in the throat. Too simple - and should probably have been laid down for a year.

Mar 20, 2008 (bottle - 500 ml) Clear amber pour with not much of a head. Aroma is very strong. Lots of alcohol, wine, malts, and some paint thinner. Very sweet and malty at the beginning, giving way to a very cloying bubblegum middle and a slightly bitter finish of malts and alcohol that disappears quickly. Alcohol is very apparent. Not a good barley wine.

Mar 18, 2008 Darker gold, not much aroma. Sort of molassesy. Much sweeter than the other elves and a little stickier.
