2012 batch, It has been in my cellar for about six months. The color is a handsome looking medium amber mahogany color with a fine glistening head that lingers. The aroma is somewhat mellower than expected but full of malt character, dough, and a dark fruit ester. The body is medium to bold. The taste invades the senses with its up front maltiness, thin alcohol bite, and only a low to moderate finish, which I really liked.

Bottle. Poured reddish amber with little head. Aroma is some tropical fruit and sweet malt. Taste is very malt forward. Good solid soft palate. Very tasty.

22oz bottle of 2013 vintage. Pours a reddy orange color with a thick fine head. Aroma of malt and hops. Great balance of malt, hops and sweetness. Alcohol isn't too noticeable.

2012 Edition on tap at the Monk’s Kettle in San Francisco vs the 2013 at the same time. Dark red with a good creamy head. Lovely malt hop aroma. Fruity, hoppy and bitter, complex with some caramel notes. A pretty good beer to sip on overall.

2013 bottle. Clear copper, thin off-white head. caramel, citrus, floral, bread, lots of alcohol. medium sweetness, very bitter. full body, creamy, thick feel, astringent finish. Overwhelmingly bitter at the temperature I’d normally serve it at, but it balances out some after a while.

2013 Release.
A finger of head on a deep amber colored body.
The aroma is nice with caramel and lemon coming through; and touch of bread.
The taste is good with a hidden boldness: lemon bitterness, caramel and bready sweetness; great balance and drinkability.
The texture is crisp with moderate carbonation.
One of the most drinkable barleywines that hides its high ABV well.

Pours hazy orangish brown with a 2 finger head than dissipates to a 1/2 finger. Leaves a lot of lacing on the glass. Aroma of sweet malt and candied citrus. Taste is bitter sweet malt with a citrusy after taste. Can't really detect the almost 12%. Great beer for the price. Love this and Three Floyd's Behemoth, similar beers.

Flaska från SB, 3 år gammal. Massor av maltsötma, karamell och kola, mycket humle kvar trots åldern. Mest grapesmaker och grapebeska som tillsammans med malten skapar en fin grapemarmeladig smakbild. Ganska tuff beska, stora smaker och väldigt god. Lite sirapsaktig och oljig, ett fint öl att sippa på.

UPDATED: MAR 25, 2013 The color of the beer is a dark reddish brown color with a minimal white head, and the aroma fuses the smells of toasted malts, vanilla, clove, and molasses. The taste is a quite umami, mildly bitter, slightly sweet, and slightly sour, which makes for a complex taste; furthermore, the palate combines a medium-full body, a slick yet creamy texture, soft carbonation, and a long, bitter finish.
