Jun 10, 2008 Reddish orange with a thin beige head. Aroma is pretty hefty on the citrus followed by a big sweetness that creates a lemon/orange candy kind of thing. Some alcohol is there as well. Alcohol up front followed some citrus and dark fruity mix. Caramel malts. Nice hoppy presence. Lots of booze. Notes say: good!

Feb 10, 2006 On Tap at Pub: Sweet, musty maltiness, some dark fruit flavors and a hint of peaty smokiness;spicey hopping and a note of fusals; a bit like a Scottish redition of a barley wine.

Jan 26, 2006 Slightly hazy chestnut colour. SLightly syrupy, brandyish, vaguely nutty, orangey aroma but nothing overly distinctive. Rich, malty, earthy, sticky character with a resiny, slightly alcoholic finish. Bit of plum in there too. OK if young example.

Jan 3, 2006 This pours a rich shade of auburn, and has that aroma that I have come to know in alot of NW style barleywines. Sweet, hoppy and full of candi sugar, this has solid malt structure, toasty nuts, citric hops and some herbal fruitiness. It is very, very young and green though

Mar 9, 2005 Dark, cloudy brown with strings of lace and a tannish head. Roast and caramel malt aromas. Some bitter and some citrus hops. Flavors are bitter and fruity, but roasty and nutty as well. Earthy with alcohol. Bitter tailed and a medium body.
