RB backlog. Intense woody grains, raisins, dried figs, caramel. Intense sweet start, toasty, sweetness builds up, becomes tart, warm and sweet finish. Not my thing, but quite good.
I miss bcbbarleywine, this is smooth but definitely boozy, needs to sit somewhere for like... A decade. Caramel toffee are there, alongside tons of fresh bourbon. Definite a wine of wheat.
Typical barley wine, extreme sweet, raisins, average body, a bit thin texture, vanilla, bourbon, a bit sharp alcoholic, granular, too alcoholic, decent

Draft pour at goose island philly. This looks okay. Light reddish orange, 2 finger pale yellow head, sticky resilience. Very heavy on the candy sugar, brown sugar, caramel, toffee and wood. Touches of vanilla aroma. Very sweet. This tastes almost unfinished like they just sort of put this in a barrel then never added adjuncts or didn’t wait long enough. S’uper sweet, toffee, caramel, table sugar, ginger root, loads of vanilla and coconut. Tasty but way too intense right now. See you in 2 years!
