Bomber bottle.... Good luck, Sam, and thanks, Dad. Aroma is boozy with some malt. Appearance is a dark bronze with with no head. Taste kinda reminds me if barley wine with more booze. Very well done beer, of course. Palate is ok. Overall, an outstanding beer. Glad i was able to share this with some great peeps.

4.4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 19/20
Pours a mostly clear deep caramel and gold color with a thin layer of beige head. The nose is rich and boozy with smooth oak, bourbon and toffee. The taste starts with layers of toasted malts, caramel, dark fruit and burnt sugar. A light touch of citrus hops come in next and are swept away by sweet vanilla and chewy toffee. Notes of dark raisin lurk underneath, meshing nicely with the oak barrel treatment. Finishes boozy and sticky. Warm and inviting with a kiss of hops. This a phenomenal barley wine and the Beerhive is the only place in the state that managed to get some.
