2008 22oz bottle opened in 2010. Beautiful golden red with a creamy head. Not much aroma, but what’s there is sweeness and alcohol. Taste has lots of caramel sweetness- too much, not enough bitterness to balance it.

A great barley wine. High in alcohol, but not noticeable. a great balance of malt, hops and carbonation, something which can be missed with this style.

On tap at Rose Alley Ale House in New Bedford. Deep amber color with a thick head. Aroma is of citrus, lemon, hops, and sweeter malts. Flavor is a little boozy with malts, hops, and a little bitter. Leaves a sweeter malt aftertaste.
