Flossmoor Station Wooden Hell

Brewed by Flossmoor Station Restaurant & Brewery
Style: Barley Wine
Flossmoor, Illinois USA

One of the best beers of the weekend. Poured a real dark color with a light head. Aroma of bourbon, chocolate, caramel. Flavor was insanely smooth overall. Pretty strong bourbon to this was very good overall.

Pours a deep almost opaque brown with a light brown head. Aroma is of bourbon, dark fruits, and aged malts. Flavor is woody vanilla, aged malts, dark fruit, bourbon with a slight alcohol burn. Great barleywine.

Had on tap @ the flossmoor.Lots of bourbon in the aroma.Pours dark brown with a medium off white head.Lots of sweet malt, caramel and some bourbon dominated the flavor.Medium to full mouthfeel with a big alcohol/bourbon finish.I got to flossmoor a little late and they were out of this but big thanks to Zinnamon for sharing some of his.

Wow! 2005, was on tap the day before DLD. wonderful aroma of oak, bourbon, and some sweetness. had this followed by a trip to FFF and prefered it over the BA Behemouth albeit not by much.

On tap at the brewpub the night before DLD - Pours dark mahogony with a tan head that faded quick. Aromas of toffee, caramel, oak, vanilla, and bourbon. Flavor is oak, bourbon, toffee,caramel. This is one smooth full bodied beer. Sticky sweet at the finish. What a fantastic brew...

GABF 2006. Murky copper. Nose is woody, bourbonny, vanilla, caramel and sweet malts. I could sniff this for days! The taste is much the same as the aroma but is oh so damn smooth. Vanilla, bourbon notes, wood, caramel, light toffee, and sweet malts. De-frickin’-licious! Creamy but slick feel. Rather full overall feel, for a barrel aged beer. Finishes with more vanilla, wood, bourbon and sweet malts. Light alcohol throughout. Very nice!

GTMW. dark amber with a creamy tan head, lasting. The aroma is pine, caramel, toffee and citrus. The flavor is boozy, caramel and ctirus. Full bodied, sticky with a bitter, warm end.

On tap at FoBAB 4. Poured murky dark brown with a medium cap of beige head and some nice lacing. Aroma picked up sweet bourbon first, followed by rising plums and other dark fruits. Flavor was heavily-influenced by the bourbon in the flavor.. rich creamy caramel, molasses, and dark fruits at the core.. reverts back to the bourbon at the finish. Quite sticky and sweet on the palate. Solid brew, but picked up just a bit too much barrel character.
