May 2, 2009 Pours slightly hazed off-amber color with off-white head. Nose is rich with peach pit, overripe grapefruit, and caramel. Palate offers more caramel and toffee, with soft "chalky" hop bitterness towards the end. Slow drinking, and perhaps could benefit enormously with more age.

Apr 27, 2009 Bottle, 27-APR-2009
Vintage 2009.
Yep, this is my kind of Barley Wine.
Orangy without head.
Malts and loads of hops with only a little sweetnes making it more bitter than most.
Creamy, bitter and long aftertaste. This is really good barley wine, and a reason for drinking the American kind.
Brought home from New York.

Apr 25, 2009 Bottle marked "limited early 2009 release". Pours a ruby gold color with nice particles and an off white head that lasted the duration of the beer. Aroma of floral hops, citrus, grass, caramel, and some earthiness. Flavor is hops, dirt, malts. Nice alcohol finish, but could use some time. Syrupy mouthfeel.

Apr 24, 2009 Bottle@GrOve’s. A thin beige, fine-laced head resting on deep golden to pale amber colored body. Strong caramellish malt aroma. Some fruity and grassy hops and a whiff of alcohol. Rich malt body, medium sweet with a quite heavy hop bitterness. Earth, fruit and grass. Feels a bit rough on the palate, yet nicely balanced. Finishes with a long, kind of peppery bitterness. A potent sipper!
