On tap at Full Circle in Fresno. Golden-ruby amber with a slight haze. Nose is spicy roast malt and high brown-sugar. Taste is same. Nice sweet bite of warm malt. Spicy lingering. Caramel. Good brew.

Sampled at Toronado 2009 Barleywine Festival. Pours crystal clear amber with copper edges and micro thin tan to off white head. The aroma is moderate in strength that is sort of a cherry to near cherry cough syrup sensation followed by sugar maltness. The nose seems lacking in depth a bit. Maybe this is due to the last beer I tried having an amazing aroma. The taste is sickly sweet. It goes from sugar sweet malts and approaches cherry fruitiness mixing with a little bit of plum and then rolling into a cherry cough syrup sensation. It smooths out into a slick sweet finish.
