Aged a year, rye malts, whiskey taste. Still very smooth. The hops add a great balance!

Serve in place of Sauternes with foie gras

Opaque hazy copper color with amazing white head that has excellent retention and leaves a moderate amount of lace. Poured into tulip glass. Boozy nose with caramel and cherry aromas. Ethanol warmth obscures some of the flavors. 10% ABV makes its presence felt early on. Yeast sediment is fairly heavy making the body medium and somewhat chewy. Carbonation is good. Overall, a strong but interesting barleywine. Enjoyable, but would only have one at a time. Fred has some bark to it.

Golden with a great off white head. Lots of carbonation. Spicy and a little caramel. Typical barley wine aromas. Sweet caramel flavors pour out. Hint of spiciness. Drying mouthfeel. Full mouthfeel. Very good. 12 oz. bottle

Nasty, like most of its barley wine ilk.

Sweet caramel meets smoky flavor. Definitely boozy.
