Mar 2, 2005 Poured a reddish amber with a thin head. Aroma was big and sweet. Very malty with caramel, sugar, and dark fruits. Flavor is big and malty with a big hops to balance and a nice bitter finish. Thick and full bodied. I have had this beer a number of times and thankful I have a bunch more. One time was at a beer and cheese tasting and it was paired with a mustard cheese tasting (called dragon cheese I believe) and it was amazing.

Feb 18, 2005 12 oz. bottle. Black pour with small head. The aroma is quite hoppy. The flavor is also quite hoppy with enough malt to balance. The darkness in the color is coming through in the flavor with some roasty & chocolate flavors. This makes it quite an interesting barleywine like no other I have had. Great beer. Thanks Go Brew!

Feb 18, 2005 Pours a cloudy dark red color with chunks of yeast floating around. Decent creamy off-white head that leaves a sticky lacing in my glass. Sweet candy like citrus aroma, sweet roasty caramel-grapefruit flavors, nice balanced and complex, full bodied with a sticky thick resiny creamy mouthfeel, nice lasting bitter finish, awesome.

Feb 18, 2005 Tap at Blue Nile in Minneapolis 2/16/05. Rich chocolate amber color with tan head, holding nicely. Aroma of spicy and dark winter baking fruits. Mouthfeel is velvety smooth with enough flavor bite to keep you paying attention. Cloves, anise, pepper, chocolate malt, caramel/ butterscotch bits. Clean finish. The alcohol is never tasted. Fantastic.
