Bigfoot is a beast of a beer, packed with bittersweet malt and heaps of aggressive whole-cone Pacific Northwest hops. First introduced in the winter of 1983, Bigfoot is a cult-classic brewed in the barleywine style—strong and robust with the refined intensity of a wine. Bigfoot is prized by beer collectors for aging in cellars. Under the proper conditions, it can develop enticing new flavors and character as it matures in the bottle. Each new release or “expedition” is vintage dated. Collect your own and savor the evolving flavors.

Sample at Ale Wine & Spirits in Powell on 02/16/2012. Clear copper color with a medium thin frothy off-white head that recedes gradually to a film. Sparse patches of lacing. The aroma is roast malt, caramel, fruit and hops. Medium to full body with flavors of caramel malt, fruit and piney hops. The finish is mild resiny hops up front with a malty aftertaste. Solid Barley Wine as always.
