Boozy sweet strong and dark. A little bit of a bite, otherwise would’ve been 4.5.

Strong and a little boozy tasting but got smoother and sweeter as it went.

Another one that is coming across Hot. Must be something with the aging. Still damn good!!!

The booze is very strong. I’ve had some this style that are smoother but higher abv. Maybe if it aged even more?

Wow massive big malts alcohol heat long into the finish. Low carbonation but it does not need it. Massive dark fruit dominates the palate with alcohol heat. Needs more time to mellow. Still tasty.

I think cellaring since 2014/15? Anyhow, it's damn good - tastes like an oatmeal raisin cookie. No abv burn whatsoever.

Aged 2 years in the cellar. Booze has settled down nicely. Heavily malt forward, toffee sweetness, and a little dried dark fruit character- mostly figs, but also some raisins. Nice alternative to all the big stouts. Would buy again—not at full price tho89

Horrid. Too strong on the raisins and the bourbon barrel tasted sour. Worst ale I've had.

Very malty and heavy, more than I would like. The raison taste doesn't feel very present, but the brown sugar and body do. Feels a bit "much"

Woah. Surprisingly smooth for a higher ABV. Many flavors on the palate.

Old ale kind of quality for sure. 16.5%?!! Didn’t realize that when I started. But she kicks like a mule. I’m digging it!

Flavor was good but waaaay to strong for me. Might as well make it liquor.

Finally trying this relic of craft beer. An odd beer for sure and I can see why people don’t like it. Super boozy and earthy, and not quite barleywine enough for me to love it. Enjoy it for what it is

Per the name, it definitely has a raisin vibe to it. At 16.5% ABV, it's my hardest hitting beer to date. Drinks very smoothly

Has a very nice nose. Can definitely smell the raisins and brown sugar.
