May 26, 2008 Darkish yellow ale looking. Big hops and alcohol but not overdone. I guess I will take the experts opinion that this is a barley wine but if it is I think it is the first I have really enjoyed.

May 26, 2008 strong sweet malty aroma .... sweet resin and caramel/prune start ... hoppy bitter finish that lingers ... thick mouthfeel ... alcohol shows up as it warms .... heavy and sweet ... save this one for a dark and cold evening

May 25, 2008 Updated: Jun 25, 2008Copper pour with a slight haze, however it is really clean looking. Thin off white head with a little lace left behind. Fresh wet hop aroma a little grassy though. Sweet caramel flavor up-front with a pine hop finish. A slight hint of citrus lingering in my mouth leaves me wanting more.

May 24, 2008 Pours a golden copper with slight haze, almost no head. Aromas of pine and citrus...hops, honey. Flavor of sweet honey sickle, caramel at the start and then finish of hops bitterness. Medium bodied with no carbonation? --> Very different than when I had this before - not sure if this is aged or just not kept properly as I bought the bottle from an unfamiliar retailer. I remember it being much more lively, carbonated, and more hops. Does anyone know how to tell the vintage on these bottles?

May 23, 2008 Pours an amber with very small head. Hoppy, sweet and alcohol nose. Flavor is sweet up front with a hoppy and citrus. Texture is syrup thick on the palate that just coats the mouth. Good alcohol warmth with a bite of hops on the finish.

May 23, 2008 Pour is hazed murky coppery amber with almost no head, but a few big bubbles of off white nature...smell is pine and citrus and a lot more subdued than I expected...taste is sweet and caramel up front with a nice citric pine flavor coming in toward the end...not really aggressively hoppy....interesting though....
