mcc5468 (119) - USA - OCT 17, 2010
22oz bottle. Pours a deep dark amber. Slight head. Aroma is slightly spicy. Taste is smooth. A slightly caramel and maybe banana taste but definitely some kind of fruit-hop taste in there. Alcohol is well hidden. A lot going on but very smooth. A nice beer.

madvike (1298) - Middleton, Wisconsin, USA - OCT 15, 2010
Bottle - Clear brown pour with a small white head. Really sweet with a decent amount of sharp alcohol. Pretty sweet taste, too. Caramel, with some sharp alcohol on the finish. Malty, but really not that much flavor. Just not sure what this one was trying to achieve.

Volgon (2698) - Manchester, New Hampshire, USA - SEP 27, 2010
Year-old bottle: Pours a clear orange with a small off-white head, huge aroma with brown sugar and citrus, heavy body, starts lightly sweet and ends bitter. I drank a bottle when it first came out, but it wasn’t anywhere as good as an aged bottle.

savnac (1365) - Anchorage, Alaska, USA - AUG 21, 2010
22 oz bottle from 09/09. Pours clear deep amber with a thick foamy off white head. Aroma of toffee, caramel, pine resin and alcohol. There is a fair amount of caramel malt sweetness but the hop bitterness slightly dominates the flavor, there is also a light oaky alcohol flavor. Medium to full body with a mellow carbonation and a syrupy mouth feel. Pretty good Barley Wine, good to see Redhook trying some new, big beers.

stobbe74 (2767) - DENMARK - AUG 20, 2010
Bottle. Pours a clear copper beer with no head. The aroma is malt, sweetness and plum. The flavor is malt, sweetness, raisin, plum and a high level of alcohol. The palate is alcoholwarmth. Overall this beer has a lot of alcohol, and needs something to balance it out.

Tmoney99 (6896) - Cincinnati, Ohio, USA - AUG 5, 2010
Bottle. Poured clear dark copper color with an average frothy off-white head that mostly lasted with good lacing. Moderate to heavy dark fruit, toasted malt and alcohol aroma. Medium to full body with a thick smooth texture and flat carbonation. Moderate to heavy complex toasted malt and fruit sweet flavor with a medium to heavy sweet and alcohol burn finish that was moderate to long lasting. This is a solid complex beer.
