Bottle shared by someone at freetail release. Pours near clear amber brown with a near white head that dissipates slowly to the edges. Aroma is sweet with caramel, toffee and bread, bit of grain. Flavor is a bit more hoppy but still sweet with toffee and bread.

Bottle. Ruby-amber beer with a dark cream colored head. Rich malt and toffee aroma with grapefruit and light pine. Grapefruit and light pine flavor with light berry notes and caramel. Medium-plus bodied. Good bitterness. Pine, grapefruit, earth, and caramel lingers. Alcohol noticeable.

Bottle thanks to Americanbrew. Pours with a large, tan head over a ruby colored body. Aroma has lots of hops, caramel, toffee, dark fruits and raisins. Taste is big, boozy, bitter, a bit of fusel, and dark fruits. Big mouthfeel, and thick with medium carbonation.

I’ve been looking forward to trying this since I first heard about it from tpd975. Thanks for sharing this yummy beast. It poured clear copper with amber core and thin tan head. The aroma has a smooth full pine, grapefruit and resiny bitter hoppy goodness with a sense of a sweet malty base. The taste is full on hoppy pine bitterness then moving into resiny hop notes. By midway a modest level of thick sweet maltiness comes to the surface to create a brief safe haven from the persistent pestilent hops. Very tasty hop heavy barleywine.
