2011 Bottle. Copper colored with very small head. Malt flavored with a bit of citrus and alcohol. Medium bitterness. Middle of the road barleywine, i wouldn’t turn one down but for the price i probably wouldn’t buy again.

3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Nice and Malty aroma,no hops in my nose.
Clear amber with no head.
Medium carbonation and somewhat oily texture.
You can really taste the malt in this one,backed by medium bitterness.
True to the British style of Barley Wine.
Good beer but bothing special about it.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Aroma of white raisin, chocolate, caramel and a bit of iron. Pours red with a medium to small white head. Taste is intense with caramel, slight rum, and some dark fruits. Alcoholic and a bit harsh but tasty.
4.1 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20
Bottle at North Bar, Leeds. Pours a dark orange, very small head that fades to a very small ring of bubbles. Aroma is Sharp and fresh, fruity goodness, lots of malt. Taste is Sharp on the way in, with apricot/fruity flavors, before the caramel malt kicks in. Finish is fairly long, with a hoppy resin balancing the malt. Alcohol decently masked, nice medium bodied mouthfeel, appropriate level if carbonation. This is very good.
3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Pours a hazy brownish color, without any head. Smell is sweet and floral. mixed with alcohol. Taste is citrus, woody with hints of pineapple, alcohol is masked well but can still be tasted. Finish is long and lasting, To be sipped and enjoyed over time, obviously not a thirst quencher. Quaff score ( drinkability with heart enjoyment ) 7 / 10 Enjoy with cheese and fruit.
3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Pours a hazy dark amber with a disappearing head and sweet aroma, heavy on fruits, malts, and hops. Taste is very fruity with citrus flavors and a nice balance of sweet malts and hops with slight alcohol in the finish. Unique brew from Brooklyn, definitely a tasty and good barley wine.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle pours a copper color with a whiteish head that doesnt last very long. Smells and tastes of caramel, citrus, spruce, alcohol. light sweetness, medium bitterness, medium body, sticky, average carbonation, bitter. Not one of my fav barley wines but not the worst. Has at the end with the pine taste a splash of ’’brooklyn’’ having had many of their beers you tend to get that taste they all some how work in, would I buy it again prob would I go out of my way to buy it again prob not.
3.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
Bottle at home. Burnished golden/orange colour, no head to speak of. Big fruity apricot nose, caramel malts, hint of spice. Similar flavours, slightly resinous but with plenty of toffee malt to back it up. Syrupy but with some carbonation. Smooth and really quite spicy bitter linger. Alcohol amazingly well hidden. Very nice!
