| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Mar 31, 2009 This barley wine is last on my short list of b.w.s I have tried. It didn’t seem to pack much of a wallup even with it’s high alchol content. The falvors were if not muted then simple and the aromas were nice not complex. garthicus (1311), Toronto, Ontario, Canada

Aroma: Malty, alcohol, cream, raisins, sugar, honey, perfume, overripe pineapple. Flavour: Alcoholic, warm, seriously warm. Caramel, winter fruits, sweet as anything, not cloying but definitely wouldn’t have more than one in a sitting. Nice long toffee-alcohol finish. xnoxhatex (1305), Grand Rapids/Chicago, Michigan, USA

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Mar 23, 2009 Buttery, chewy, toffyish. A little fruity. I have had better barley wines, but I have more that are worse. I am glad to find another malty, bitterless version of the style. I am sick of malty I2PAs being passed off as barley wines.
