Bottle shared by goldtwins. Deep amber beer with a thinnish tan head. Aroma is lightly malty. Sweet decocted caramel. A bit of sweet toasted malt and a very chewy character. The flavour is a bit briny and salty with a touch of woodiness. Soft sweetness. It’s strangely non-descript. Not really bad at all, just a little bit bland.

Bottle shared by Sean! Poured a clear amber with an off-white head that quickly dissipated to the edges. Aroma was full of sweet notes such as caramel, toffee and sweet grains. Flavor was similar as there were notes of caramel, toffee and sweet bread. Beer was quite smooth.

Pours very dark with a minor crimson / mahogany hue and a tan sudsy head. The aroma has lots of toffee, brown sugar, doughiness, deep toasted malt, dates, figs, licorice and light alcohol warmth. Medium / thin slick body with light sharp carbonation. The flavor starts with lots of anise and spice along with abv. The taste is not as complex as the aroma was. This could be age affecting it, but I would have thought this one would age well.

Bottle @ mgumby’s: This beer pours like a syrup-heavy cola, sticking down the sides as it sloshes into the glass. Flavor and aroma are rum-soaked raisin, and chocolate malts. Fig? I thought this did not have the intensity of flavor I was expecting for a barley wine -- malt backbone was kind of weak here as compared to the intensity of the present alcohol. Nice, but not a top contender.
