Apr 13, 2009 Bottle, pours a hazy orange amber. Aroma is sweet hoppy. Flavor is soapy malty with a punch of hops. End is bitter. Strong notes of alcohol. This is a good American Barley Wine, but there are better

Apr 10, 2009 A big beer, spicy, fruity with loads of power and body. The description of a hoppy barleywine is very accurate in that the sweetness and maltiness of a barleywine is well balanced with the spice, fruit and dry finish of its hop presence. This beer was delicious.

Apr 5, 2009 Draft at Nachbar. Um, no. I didn’t even finish the draft pour of this. A sickly sweet concoction with little to nothing else going on. Maybe the keg was old, but very little hop presence. The antithesis of balance. Too bad, as I love most New Holland brews.

Apr 4, 2009 Bottle pours clear amber color with off white head. Aroma is mainly hops with some caramel malts coming through as well. Medium mouthfeel. Flavor is a lot of grassy hops and has some caramel and dark fruit sweetness in the back end. An interesting brew that’s for sure.

Mar 24, 2009 Bottle thanks to mreusch. Pours a cloudy light brown with a small white head. Aroma of sweet caramel malt, raisin, alcohol and perhaps a touch of citrus. Flavor is mostly sweet caramel, with a touch of stale wheat malt, and a bitter finish. The alcohol slowly makes its presence as you continue to drink. I liked this at first, but it really wore on me.
