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.

Bottle from Melger's, Haarlem. Remarkable, still hoppy at four years old. Sticky resinous hop with caramel, malt, lots of pine resin, touch of ripe fruit. Potent bittersweet flavour. Classic resinous American Barley Wine

As good as ever. These hops are so on point. The pininess works perfectly with the maltsplosion.
