2014 vintage bomber. A very malty body topped off with some tangy alcohol burn. Pours out a syrupy amber with minimal head. Malty, alcohol scent, sweet taste with plenty of alcohol warmth. Put your feet up, sip and relax.

Pretty sure this is going to be merged with the 2013, but since someone entered it, I’ll put my rating here (I never had the 2013) - Fairly standard hoppy American barleywine, along the lines of Bigfoot, but with a bit more subtlety - high bitterness, toffee-ish malt sweetness, moderate alcohol - but as it warms, notes of sherry and candied fruits make things more interesting - good, bt slightly astringent until you allow it to warm.

Sampled at Whole Foods in Beaverton
Clear copper with a small off-white head and some lacing. Aroma is piney, fruit and caramel. Flavors of pine resin, caramel and candy
Nice, easy drinking.

On tap at The Beer Mongers, pours an opaque dark orange with a medium beige head. Nose is pretty hot, with caramel, booze, and brown sugar. Flavour is similar, but without a big blast of piney hops in there to balance things out and conceal the alcohol burn - so there is an astringency from the hops on the finish, as well as a slight alcohol burn. Solid barley wine - perhaps it may improve with age.

Bomber from Belmont. Pours a clear dark copper color with a small white head. A sweet nose of toffee, some berries and spice. The flavor is mostly dry, yeasty, some mulled wine like elements, toffee, caramel, dust. Finishes sweet with berries. Warm.
