Amber color, thin head, and a nice mouthfeel. Lots of strong, highly prevalent flavors that mix well together.

Apr 9, 2009 Thanks to JoeMcPhee for hooking me up with this brew. Crushed with Jakebra. A very nice barley wine. Very subtle fruitiness and bitterness. A little thin-bodied, but it’s just a plain good beer. Easy to drink, a little boozy, but overall hardly anything to not like.

Apr 8, 2009 2007 Bottle. Pretty delicious stuff for 10.8%. Not overly complex and definately some booze flavor in it.. but some how its very easy drinking and enjoyable. Tastes of alcohol, some sourness, syrupy malts, brown sugar, and minerals. pretty nice.

Apr 8, 2009 [Bottle] Pours red with a good beige head. Aroma is strong of alcohol, nuttiness, and strawberry jam. Something medicinal is also in there that is off-putting for me. I know this is a fairly fresh bottle, but it was too hot for me in the taste. A little sweetness shows through as well, along with solid malt in the finish. Good mouthfeel. My biggest complaint with this is the out-of-control alcohol in the taste, and hopefully that would die down with some age. I’ll try to get around to rating an aged bottle at some point to see if there is improvement.

Apr 7, 2009 Bottle. Pours an amber color wtih a smallish tan head. Aroma is sweet and hoppy. I certainly could smell the sherry in this one along with some woody notes and some caramel and fruit. Flavor was really well balanced. The hops played well with the caramel, dark fruit and brown sugar notes. Good mouthfeel. A very easy to drink beer and the ABV could sneak up on you big time!

Apr 5, 2009 Bottle of the 2007 at Bacchus. Pours a deep clear brownish amber with a thin to medium beige head. Plum, stone fruit, prune, and sweet malt on the nose. Still a little hot, medium bodied and sticky. Good soft carbonation comprised of small fine bubbles. Finishes with a touch of alcohol and a bit of fruity malt.

Mar 30, 2009 not your typical barley wine. more sour, less malty. copper color, and 10.8 percent alcohol. worth trying. not my favorite barley wine though
