cgarvieuk (2384), Edinburgh, Scotland Jul 11, 2008 Bottle at RBESG08 ... copper ... american hop nose ... fruity pine hop ... little sweet... quite tasty
legion242 (1520), Richardson, Texas, USA Aug 28, 2008 Much too hot in the hops and very little malt backbone. Might do well with some time under it, but I am disinclined to even bother. Beer_Hawk (705), Murfreesboro, Tennessee, USA Aug 19, 2008 Sampled at the 2008 Music City Brewers Fest. Copper with an off-white head that leaves light lacing. The aroma finds grapefruit peels and a malt background. Also some celery? Chocolate malts in the flavor with some caramel and fruits. Medium body and some bitterness. RoJoNo (13), Ohio, USA Aug 10, 2008 On tap at Brew’s Cafe, Granville, OH; again, biased by 70 miles of riding hills; smooth, tasty, solid barleywine. What do you want from me? I left my brain back in Fallsburg. bager (2028), Copenhagen N, Denmark Jul 30, 2008 Bottled @ RBESG Grand Tasting 2008. Hazy and dark orange in colour with a medium sized off-white head. Notes of hops, malt, caramel, fruits and more hops. roder_60 (872), Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA Jul 27, 2008 Pours a dark hazy orange with foamy offwhite head that lasts. Aroma very citric - especially grapefruit. Also caramel notes. Flavor very malty and earthy with slight alcohol undertones. Bit of bitter hop finish. Overall, very drinkable. Not too heavy of a barleywine.
