Dec 19, 2009 XS ceramic bottle 2008. I believe this is my first American Barley Wine and if this beer is anything to go by, I want more!! Intense aroma of sweet malt, glycerin, citrus hops with some resiny characters. Palate is amazingly well balanced considering the 100+ IBUs in there. Lovely malt flavour, very complex, the hop flavour is simply awesome. What a fantastic beer, but not for the faint hearted on uninitiated. Most people I know would’nt be able to handle this beer, which is good means I have less to share.

Dec 6, 2009 1994 nib bottle courtesy of Sloth! Bottle opens without a hiss. Pours a thick, opaque mahogany with a cherry edge. Rich malt, prunes, raisins, caramel fudge cake in the nose. Mouth is flat but thick and viscous. Touch of oxidation. Bold, rich flavors with banana nut cake, dark fruits, and toffee. Very nice. Would have been stellar with bubbles. Thanks Bert, an awesome trader!
