UPDATED: DEC 28, 2005 I don’t see how anyone can give any extra points for any of this brewers "beers" . This can’t actually be classified as any style of beer as all gettysbrews taste the same.flat and watery with an bacterial infection flavor

Flat stout is what this beer amounts to. I hope they get this straightened out.

A barleywine? I think the bartender messed up on my sample and poured me 3 glasses of the SAME THING! Nothing about this is either barleywine or good.

More of a stout, really. Under no circumstances could this be called a barleywine. No real malt flavor, just a slightly sweet stout beer. Definately felt like I was getting taken for a ride paying twice as much as the other brews at this brewpub for what was a similar beer.

flat.which i can stand in a good barleywine..but flat out terrible as well..this was the last one i tried on a 5 or 6 beer sampler...i was saving it for last because all of the others tasted like infected sugar water..all exactly the same,sour nonsense...as a fan of big beers i didnt think a barley wine could be so bad i could not drink it...it was the worst of all..undrinkable...tasted exactly like SOY SAUCE...i could have made a freakin stir fry with this stuff

Belive it or not I couldn't honestly tell this supposed barleywine from the bitter, no distingushable barleywine qualities whatsoever, not an ounce of malt in the flavors & body, watery, bland, undercarbonated, flat, sour, very undrinkable, just plain awful
