Deep chestnut, thick foamy tan head, heavy sheet lacing; aroma/taste-roasty malt, hints of molasses & fig; medium body; nice, lingering hop-bitter finish.

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

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

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

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.

A good Strong Ale not a good Barleywine but I will say the minimal hops would be welcome if they did in fact brew something more in line with the style. It's a good beer but I rate how it fits into the style and this misses the mark by a lot.

Mild malty aroma with a bit of smoke and alcohol. Body is heavy and leaves a lot of residue going down. This has big characteristics. Extremely hop forward, nutty, and boozy. Exist in tandem, not blended. Aggressive aftertaste. Pair with smoked sausages

A odd combo of barley wine and porter, a little too bitter not enough caramel malts/ maltiness

Raisins and caramel sweetness on the finish. Lacking complexity that I prefer in the BA version of these beers.

At 75IBUs it’s a hop bomb. This needs a year or 2 in the bunker to temper. Nice color but can hardly taste the barley wine. Warming it mellows a bit. Kind of fun but off balanced. 🍻👈🏼😜👊🏾

Thank you Dave L. It's a rough beer to rate. I can see a range for people who like this style from 2.5 to 4.

Not really the right beer for 80. Wow was stuck in the office all F-ing day. Ipa for dinner after this big bastard. It’s big and very filling, boozy as hell too

Would rate higher if in a different category. Really wanted a barley wine.
