Dec 29, 2009 On tap at Three Floyds on 7/21/09. Pours gold with beautiful frothy eggshell head. Super citrusy hops aroma with a touch of caramel. Nice sweetness up front followed by a solid bitterness. Medium body with okay carb. Good bitter finish with a little touch of caramel on the tongue. Incredible american barley wine.

Hazy dark amber color; small, persistent creamy head. Huge caramel, malt and hop aroma, light Bourbon vanilla too, nuts, light sweat, and light raisins. Good body strength, full malt flavor, caramel, sweet but not syrupy, sweet nuts too; strong bitterness, resiny and a bit fruity, with raisins; it’s actually less aggressive than modern American samples, and closer to my beloved Thomas Hardy’s Ale. The alcohol just creates a warming feeling in the end. Powerful and yet well balanced.

Dec 28, 2009 Bottle, 22oz. It’s an almost clear, golden beer with an off-white head. Resiny, grapefruity nose with malts in the background. Fluorine, beefstock and some roasted hints as well. Pretty much the same in the mouth, but slighlty more pronounced, and with a wonderful bitterness. Bitter, sweet and malty finish. Full-bodied and slighlty warming. A really lovely beer, maybe a tad on the sweet side though. 090828

Dec 24, 2009 I also think Uncle Steve procurred this for the guys. Shared with the Celticbrw himself, the Undaunting DrBayern, and Brian the Beer Pimp.
Hoppy aroma. Pours dark copper color, with a head that lasts and holds nicely to the glass. The flavor is an easy hop flavoring . Easy to drink!
