Commercial Description:
This dangerously drinkable garnet beauty is a hop lover's delight. The intense dry-hop nose and the alcohol content are perfectly balanced for a caramel candy-like malt finish. This is a serious beer for serious beer afficionados and it only gets better with age. Cellarable for 3 years.

Aroma is mostly citrus hops and some alcohol. Pours a beautiful mahogony color with a lasting off-white head. Taste is caramel, smoke, wood, and plenty of citrus hops - almost more of an Imperial IPA really. Alcohol is noticeable, but hardly overwhelming. Surprisingly drinkable too. Mouthfeel is thick without being syrupy. This is an enjoyable beer.

Very hoppy flavor covers the taste of alcohol. This is an odd creation in the Barleywine style.

aroma is of huge sticky malt. color is burnt rust. flavor is of malt which is not nearly as thick and sticky as the nose predicted. hops work well to balance things and then some -- big hops on this one set it a bit apart from the pack. hop bitterness and malt sweetness mix just like lemons and sugar, resulting in a very distinct lemonade flavor and lingers. palate is much less then syrupy suprisingly. overall nice hop profile and above average in general.

2007 vintage on tap at Collins Pub (Feb 2009). Pours mostly clear reddish amber with a minimal off-white head. Nose is caramel and strawberry/orange/pineapple fruity hops. Tastes like it smells. Thick mouthfeel with a slightly bitter finish.
