Jul 8, 2007 Bottled. An amber beer with a thin beige head. The aroma is sweet with notes of apples, malt, and caramel. The flavor is sweet malty with a thick note of caramel, as well as a light note of wood, leading to a finish that leaves a slight alcohol burn in the throat. A boring Barley Wine.

Jul 4, 2007 (Bottle 47,3 cl) Courtesy of sk8viking. Vintage 2006. Clear, amber golden with a dense, yellowish head. Lightly caramellish nose. Full-bodied and full of sweet caramel with a slightly burned edge. The finish has a vague bitterness. Not really convincing for a Barley Wine. 290607

Sep 18, 2007 Bottle. A amber beer with a beige head. The aroma is of caramel malt, rye bread and alcohol, so is the taste. Medium to full body with a sweet finish.

Aug 17, 2007 16oz, gold waxed, bottle. 2005 vintage. Poured a deeper amber color with a large sized off white head. Aromas of dark fruits (black cherries, raisins, and plums), caramel, toffee, trace of chocolate, and a little vinous. Tastes of raisins, plums, caramel, toffee, and brown sugar. Definitely malty sweet. Light alcohol in the finish, but overall well hidden.

Sep 6, 2006 Large 1L? bottle, brewmaster’s reserve. Copper pour wearing an off-white head. Rather vegetal nose bringing forth scents of corn in a can, asparagus and earth. Higher alcohols also get felt in the back. Oily in mouth, with restrained carbonation and a very light body. Bleh, not Sprecher’s best effort, I loved some of their lagers. Fruity raisins, peaches, sweet fruit basket basically and peanut underlying are also added to the list of spread-out and uncohesive flavors. Dullish restrained hops. Lots of work on the table for this one.

Jul 29, 2006 Bottle... Clear orange ale with a small, fizzy, off-white head. The nose is similar to that of a Belgian abbey or tripel. It’s malty (caramel), but also chock full of fruity and spicy esters and phenols; pear, banana, peach, mild clove, and sherry. The flavor is mega-sweet; fruity, spicy and vinous. No semblance of balance. Full-bodied and sticky with lively carbonation. Sweet, fruity finish. Odd, but good barley wine. Thanks go out to WBC for the trade which landed me this bottle!
