| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Dec 28, 2008 On tap at the brewery. This version was aged in barrels for a year. Dark amber/copper color with a smooth off-white head. Sweet fruity nose, soft buttery bourbon flavor to it. Hints of smoke and caramel. I wish this had a touch more attenuation, felt a bit cloying in the finish, but the alcohol was hidden well and it was very smooth. riversideAK (2767), Shoreline, Washington, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jun 10, 2008 Reddish orange with a thin beige head. Aroma is pretty hefty on the citrus followed by a big sweetness that creates a lemon/orange candy kind of thing. Some alcohol is there as well. Alcohol up front followed some citrus and dark fruity mix. Caramel malts. Nice hoppy presence. Lots of booze. Notes say: good! ontario102 (794), Boise, Idaho, USA

SLightly syrupy, brandyish, vaguely nutty, orangey aroma but nothing overly distinctive. Rich, malty, earthy, sticky character with a resiny, slightly alcoholic finish. Bit of plum in there too.

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jan 3, 2006 This pours a rich shade of auburn, and has that aroma that I have come to know in alot of NW style barleywines. Sweet, hoppy and full of candi sugar, this has solid malt structure, toasty nuts, citric hops and some herbal fruitiness. It is very, very young and green though Sham (1846), Seattle, Washington, USA
