Jul 9, 2007 An excellent American Strong, right up there with Arrogant Bastard. Hazy copper pour with a medium off-white head. Rich aroma of caramel malt, piney hops, and yeast. Nice bittersweet taste of leather, wood, caramel, resiny hops, and a touch of smoke. An all-around excellent beer.

Jul 5, 2007 Bottled. A hazy amber beer with an orange head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of caramel, spices, and alcohol, tyme stands out among the spices. The flavor is sweet malty with strong notes of fruit both fresh and a bit over ripe, combined with medium notes of caramel and alcohol. The latter leaving a slight burn along the sides of the tongue. Thanks to Alex (fiulijn).

Jul 4, 2007 (Bottle 75 cl) Courtesy of fiulijn. Pours a hazy, amber golden with an off-white head. Fat aroma of caramel and hops. Full-bodied with lots of caramel, overripe fruit and roasted malt - some spiciness too. Hoppy finish yet not overly bitter. We’re really talking Barley Wine borderlands here. 030707

Jun 28, 2007 750mL bottle, listed at 9% ABV. Poured a fiery reddish-amber with a 1" creamy, well-retained beige head. Rummy caramel and chocolate are quite fragrant in the aroma.. herbal and woody notes provide accents.. warmth really brought out some vinous notes and a touch of mild smoke.. quite intriguing. The flavor had a long, oxidized, drawn-out spiked caramel middle.. prickly alcohol made it pop in a good way.. sticky vinous notes, caramel, and chocolate linger for a rather long finish.. really tasty! Medium-bodied.. decent feel, but nothing memorable on the palate. Warm, tasty finish. Nice one!

May 20, 2007 Dark Cloudy Fig Color with Sandy Tan Head. Toasted/Burnt Caramel and Perhaps Even Peated Smoke Malt on the Nose. Quite Sweet. Initially Quite Sweet with the Burnt Caramel/Smoke Notes Coming Out Most Dominantly. Hops Push Their Way Through for a Semi-Balanced Bitterness in the Aftertaste. Some Date/Raisin, Bread and Fruit Notes As Well. Bit Dry Overall, but a Nice Hearty Strong Ale.

Apr 28, 2007 750ml bottle. Poured brownish orange at first into my Sam Adams specialty glass then darkend to a caramel brown toward the top. Lots of sediment at the bottom of the bottle. Full fluffy tan head. Big aroma of caramel with a moderate hoppiness. Mostly caramel flavor and some nice hop notes and brown sugar. My bottle had an 8.3% ABV sticker covering the original 9.0% ABV on the bottle. Pretty good beer.

Apr 4, 2007 Nose of vanilla, flowers, and typical hops spice. The brew pours cloudy woody brown with yeasty beasties. The average off-white head is creamy, mostly lasting and leaves no lace. The brew has a strong bitter presence just the way I like it, with a fruity middle. The full body is dry and soft.

Mar 30, 2007 Auburn brown cloudy pour with creamy light tan head with good lacing, sweet heavy malt smell burnt and grainy, medium to full body, also some honey in there, soft carbonation, cremy texture average duration, leathery yeast defined woody flavor with some brown sugar in there too, balanced average duration, alcoholic not very bitter. Good to try but don’t strain yourself to find.
