Pours dark with a modest head and loads of suspended sediment. Smooth, sweet, malt start leads to a rich, strong body. Deep woody finish has lingering notes of chocolate. Still amazing after 4+ years in the bottle... (most of that time in my beer fridge.)

Pours burnt mahogany in color with a generous head and fruity bouquet. Strong, sharp start leads to a tart, cranberry /cherry body. Finishes sharp and juicy with lingering booziness from BBA. Somewhat like a spiked fruitcake in a glass. Good stuff!

Pours amber and bubbly with a modest head and citrusy bouquet. Light, crisp start leads to a lime body smoothed out by agave notes from tequila barrel aging. Tart citrus finish is refreshingly crushable. Good TBA, but not its big brother (Mas Tequila).

Pours darkest brown with a thin head. Surprisingly light, thin start quickly yields to a deep, rich, robust coffee body. Uberstrong finish has oakey, boozy goodness and brown sugar notes from bourbon barrel aging. Better than expected for a Swedish BBA.

Deep, rich and oakey start with a boozy bourbon barrel aged body. Finishes silky smooth and strong with cocoa notes. Strong AF 18%er is the real deal. $28 for a vintage 2020 bottle? Yes, please!

Pours darker than any barleywine I've ever seen, topped by full, thick head. Strong, deep start leads to a smooth malt body. Drying finish is a boozy mule-kick of slightly bitter roasty hoppiness. Complex layering but a bit too dry for my palate.
