Olde School (2017)

Barleywine - American

Bold, yet smooth! Fermented with dates and figs, this bone-crusher has a completely unique flavor. At 15% abv, this beer is a great candidate for ageing. Over time, the beer dries out and the pit fruit flavors come forward and the hops recede.

Faint caramel, boozy aroma. Light brown sugar and dates, very strong boozy finish.

Not sure if this was a bad bottle but was disappointed with this vintage, I remembered this being better.

2017, 2023 - it is not as boozy as i remember, or as strong. This was pretty tasty!

Probably held on to this one for juuust a bit too long, as well. It isn't terrible by any means, but it's on the other side of that hill.

A: deep murky brown. What little head there is almost instantly becomes a thing ring. A: big fruity sweetness. T: the sweetness is still there but a big blast of herbal hops is stronger. A little boozy. F: lighter, smooth
