Oct 17, 2009 Great tasting barely wine that is not for the faint of heart with an 11.1% ABV, it does not take too many to become a blithering idiot and hence the name. Weyerbacher is a brewery in Easton, PA who does have a few specialty beers. Those with lager palates may not enjoy Weyerbacher, but we locals love it!

Oct 5, 2009 i bought this stuff a few years back when i first turned 21 and i was BSing with the beer guy at the store saying that i drank only 2 of those beers and i wouldnt drive home and he said drink 2 of those and you wont be able to walk home. well i drank all 4 and ended up sleeping under my friends piano that night. never the less, this stuff is strong and malty with lots of dried fruit in the smell and taste. sweet and bitter at the end, makes you always want another sip to assure that you love it.

Oct 5, 2009 Pours ruby with a small tan head. Aroma is of malt, sugar, alcohol, dark fruit, and caramel. Has a strange sugary alcohol aroma that I didn’t expect. Taste is of slight wood, dry malt, sugar, a decent amount of fruit, and caramel. Has a strong, underlying alcohol presence. Lingering taste of sugary fruit. Mouthfeel is creamy and sticky. A strange mix of flavors, but I enjoyed it.

Oct 2, 2009 Fairly opaque amber brew with a wisp of an off-white head, notes of plum and other ripe, sweet fruits--apricots!--a little dry, but very nicely balanced with some smooth malt sweetness.

Sep 28, 2009 somewhat cloudy orange, thick frothy orange-y head.
thick, heady, sweet aroma, backed by peach candy and alcohol sting.
flavor is less offensive in front, mildy sweet leading to bitter, sharp fruit and alcohol burn.
bit of a thin body for the style, but it might help in this case.
this isn’t actually bad, it’s just very rough around the edges.
and it gets better as it warms, with some darker dried fruit, figs and whatnot.

Sep 26, 2009 Pours amber brown with a smallish off white head. Aroma is malty caramel, with hints of toffee and dark fruits. Flavor is full of malt, with lots of caramel, dark fruit, toffee and hints of chocolate and coffee. Very good.

Sep 16, 2009 A good, but not spectacular, barleywine. Certainly worth grabbing if you have a chance to decide for yourself. I’d put it as better than a bigfoot, but not as good as the brewdog tokyo.

Sep 14, 2009 12oz bottle from Chevy Chase Wine & Liquors in DC. Nice reddish-amber appearance with a small white head. Aroma is caramel malt, dark fruits, and brown sugar. Flavor is lots of caramel malt, not too sweet, with toffee, raisin, spice, grain, alcohol, and some hops. Body is medium-full and a little syrupy but not as much as you’d expect for the high ABV. Overall, an average barleywine.
