Jan 21, 2008 22oz bottle. Pours a thick golden-bronze color. Low carbonation. Honey sweet taste. Rich in taste but smooth and deceptively drinkable. Slightly reminiscent of mead, but more subtle. A really well done Strong Ale.

Oct 15, 2007 I dont know why this ber is getting such low ratings. IM not a big fan of barley wines, but i thought the rye added was very interesting. This is by far the thickest beer ive ever had

May 6, 2008 Bottle. Pours amber, with a medium off-white head. Aroma is raisin, plum, caramel, and some citrusy hops. Flavor is similar, grainy, very rich, sticky, with a strong alcohol aftertaste. Very tasty beer.

Jul 22, 2007 12oz bottle. Pours clear golden, with a moderate sized off-white head. Aroma of alcohol, rye, and sweet malt. Caramel and rye up front, which is quickly joined by very sweet honey flavor. Mild hops evident in the finish. Thick, honey-like mouthfeel. Finishes with some alcohol burn. Definitely has some mead character. This beer was a pleasant surprise. I think this will improve nicely with some age; i’ll have to get some more for the cellar.
