Bottle Shop Series: Nemesis

Jeremy Burkeen

Andrew Palmer

Bitter and malty but not as bitter as the IBU suggests.

Martha Kalisz

Johnny 5

Meh kinda ashy no floral notes but heavy if you like that 🍺🍺

Eric M (stlbeerdad)

Way too young. I'll try again in a year.

Aroma is like olive brine..... but over all taste is pretty good.

Derek Cole

Ryan M.

Transitions from high fruit to straight chocolate

Ashley Burnett

Joey D.

Nemesis Enforcer

Kurt G.

Good.

Chris W

Dumped a '17 Backwoods and an '18 Better Half, which weren't tasting good, before landing on this which is also not exciting me. Lackluster BW imo.

Kelley Sherrard

Barely Wine Style. Too sweet for me, but the high IBUs makes it easier to drink. Hubby likes it.

Dennis

Pours dark brown/red. Aroma reminded me of raisin and berries, which I enjoyed. Did need to warm this up a little to start getting any malt flavors. Slightly bitter. Overall lacks the intensity and complexity I think of with the style.

Brendan Sherry

Nathan S.

Smoother than most in the style- bitter hops and chocolate malts lean this towards the bitter but very sweet end. An interesting but ultimately unspectacular beer.

Brick

Definitely needs that maple syrup barrel. Bitter malts scratched a rare itch.

Matt

Kevin K.

Rough mismatch of flavors. Sweet, malty nose fully offset by monster hops throughout. Really dry/warming finish. Seems less like a BW and more of a cuvée of random strong shit. Low expectations and still disappointed.

Colin Valensa

Tom Fudge

Glen S.

Well made. A tad drier than I was expecting.

Jeroen V.

J B.

Not what I would expect from a barleywine. More on the roast chocolate side for malts and more bitter hops than I like in this style.

William Coles

Sander F

heavy on the barley. some resin bitterness, with boozy heat on the finish. it's potent, and a little too much for my liking.

Johnny M.

Needed a bit more sweetness. The bitterness was welcome but didn't taste right. Too piney for me at least, but it is called nemesis after all.

Kory

John Lamberth

Keith C

A little harsh. Really needs to mellow

Jeremy

Adam R.

Mark C

Kinda bland. Bitterness pretty much takes over everything else. Sounded good

Steve Damerell

Definitely drinks more like a hoppy stout fresh. Will be interesting to see if that changes with age.

Matt Ryan

Haven’t had a barleywine in a while. Middle of the road.

Chris Burkhead

Craig Beckwith

Rachel Yates

Ronnie R.

Hannah M

Wowowowoww. Hoppy boi

Alex Dula

Tastes more like a black ipa

Mike Ondercin

Not used to hoppy barleywine.

Tastes like dessert!

I can't handle these 11%'rs anymore....dial it back once in a while. This one is nothing special

Kerri Allen

patrick s.

Nice hoppy take on a barley wine. Not as boozy as some barley wines!

Neil C.

Wow. Didn’t realize the alcohol % was over 11%. Very smooth. Probably fall asleep afterwards

As a barleywine, like a 3. Maybe. As a beer, maybe a 3.6 or so.
