Oct 3, 2006 Bottled.
Hazy ruby red, no head. Dry papery and alcoholic aroma. Liquerish, soft mouthfeel. Burning alcohol, licorice, lots of hoppy bitterness. Long alcoholic-burning bitter aftertaste. Still good as a barley wine - at least propably good ageing potential.

Oct 2, 2006 Bottled. Hazy amber. The aroma has loads of caramel hay and apricots. Sweet and full bodied with compact mouthfeel. Very hoppy with notes of pineapple and yeast, lots of toffeeish malt. Extremely bitter finish.

Sep 30, 2006 Caramic 75 cl. black bottle. Very deep malty aroma. Deep red-brown colour with light brown head. No visible carbonation and head dissapears a little to quick. Full nutty malty taste with LOTS of hops. I think is is too citruslike in it hops flavour, but all in all a very nice beer. Just to extreme.

Sep 24, 2006 tap - Pours murky brown with a very small head. It smells like most barley wines with lots of malt and some alcohol. The flavor is consistent and is too hot, in my opinion. It’s still fairly good, but quite a ways from great.

Sep 21, 2006 On Tap at Rogue Ales Public House - Astoria Pours out a murky brown topped with a small off white head. The first time I had this years ago it was wow strong. But now with a little tast testing it was very good. A nice malt on this one.

Sep 9, 2006 Updated: May 8, 2009Ceramic swingtop. Murky brown with a thin off white head. Mildly sweet malt and orange nose, some spiciness. Resiny hops. Alcohol is apparent. Flavor is malt, booze and more malt. This baby is too hot - might age, but too pricey for what it is.
Re-rate - Daytona 500 tasting. 2006 swingtop. MUCH better now, not as hot, mellow and smooth. All the above stuff is there, but much better integrated. Numbers based on this sample.

Sep 6, 2006 "Thanks to eagle for this one we did an 11 year old bottle and this years bottles back to back. 11 year old bottled poured with not head dark brown. Aroma was of strong maple vinous notes. Flavor was hops made it 11 years, wood and caramel. Mouthfeel was a little thin. Fastforward to 06 bottle. were they the same beers??? tasted totally different. Poured a redish brown color small head. Aroma was of caramel alcohol and light fruits. Flavor was much the same with some pinhops to it as well. Mouthfeel was a little dry."
