aspidites (1268), manteca, California, USA Mar 1, 2008 So not as good as when Tom Nickle brewed it. Nutty and breasy nose with soft cocoa, wood and oxydation notes. MrDick (265), San Francisco, California, USA Sep 7, 2002 Toronado had this on tap for their 15th anniversary. Poured without any head but once I sipped this, bubbles exploded in my mouth. Coffee, cocoa and smoke flavors. Not sweet like most barley wines. Much more similar to a smokey porter.
