bockboy@att.net - September 7, 2015A-. Fairly bitter as I drank this in 2015. Alcohol present. Could age several more years. Some dried peach and fig taste with light toffee flavors.
aaf145 - July 20, 2014Kind of rough.. Carmel, malty, but the hop finish is bad..... However 11.6% abv is bad ass and you have to expect that from an overrated brewery like Stone.. 3 stars....generous but I'll tip my hat for this powerful barleywine, just wish the hops were less potent..
usmcphillips - April 20, 2014Hoppier than it needs to be just like many other micro-brews. In spite of that fact, it still manages to be decent. Not a beer that I'd seek out to have again.
robertvperry@gmail.com - April 6, 2014This is the 2014 release. I have not had previous year releases. This is a mild, balanced brew. Beautiful copper color and if poured large, has a nice head. Overall a good brew.
