Commercial Description:
Also brewed as Batch 1000.
Unlike traditional English Barleywines, this one is crisp golden and extremely hoppy. This beer is made with 100% German pilsner and a heavy dose of hops.

On tap at IH West Chester. Deep golden orange in color with a nice off white head. Fruity malty aroma. Caramel notes. Malty fruity vanilla flavor. Hoppy notes. Sweet tasting. Medium bodied. Finish is hoppy. Nice beer. Drinkable.

Golden color with smaller head. Sweet aroma with an almost Belgian scent - some hops detectable in the nose. Sweet taste that seems to cross over into Quad/Belgian strong territory. Hops are definitely pleasant. A bit different, but I don’t go to good brewpubs for the same old thing.

Poured a golden amber body. Very hoppy nose...Somewhat perfumy. The flavor was pretty big hops of the bat. Lots of flowery citrus flavor. The finish become a bit maltier with some carmel hints but still a good bit of hops and some alcohol.
