got a 6er of the 2008 bottles on a whim, was going to buy a single at a-b-c, glad i went with the 6er. tastes sort of like sweetwater’s happy ending seasonal they brew in mid-end december. definatly taste the hops, going to let it get a little colder then go for another.

had this one on tap at barley’s ale house #1 in columbus, oh pours a nice dark muddy redish color. nice 1in. head taste was of sweet malts, and a good balance of hops. the best barley wine i have had yet

Ripe fig shade with light head. Very sweet fruity aroma. Velvety smooth intro that immediately becomes sweet, malty and carbonated in the mouth, then very sweet and warming in the finish. Bittersweet chocolate first then grapefruity in the aftertaste. My first barleywine - I need to find more.

Bottle, thanks to Strykzone. Super dark red pour with a very nice head. Aromsas of malt hit you immediately. Quickly those aromas give way to some pretty damn strong hops. This is just too hoppy for me. But it is brewed well.

had bottled and on draft, both ways pour a great red color with a nice white but not long lasting head that gives a nice balance of hops and malt. not as sweet as some barley wine which allow a great hop bitterness that leaves u wanting more.

Nice thick creamy lasting head on this muddy red-looking barleywine. Floral hoppy aroma with notes of dark fruits. Very filling palate with a nice balance of strong hops with tons of malt. Best barleywine I’ve had to date.

2008 Bottle - Pours a beautiful amber with a large 1" light tan head, malty floral aroma, citrus alcohol is is the first impression and finishes the same way, very good flavor balance of hop, malt and alcohol, wow ageability. Enjoy it now on a cold day...

Tap @ Big City. Pours a deep-reddish brown. Lovely. Rather sweet malt character, with an aftertaste of citrusy hops.
