Bottle at home shared with Laura. Reddish color, small beige head. Aroma is malts, raisins, liquor, light plums and figs. Flavor is malts, raisins, toffee lightly, liquor, quite bitter in the end. There's an initial sweetish flavor, but then that fades and there's a raisin sweetness, and then that passes too into a liquor bitterness. Quite good. Old school almost. A little bit thinner than I would have liked but still pretty nice.

Bottle shared at CBJ - cheers to Dave. Pours clear copper with a small, creamy off-white head. Medium sweet flavour, notes of toasted malts, caramel, bready malts. Medium to full bodied with fine to average carbonation. Sweet finish, lightly warming, more bready malts, toffee. Tasty if sweet.

Craft Beer Junction bottleshare, thanks to Wingman. Pretty much a clear amber beer, small bubbly cream colour head. Airy palate, semi dry, decent fine carbonation. Airy malts, a thin light creamy sweetness. Very mild biscuity caramel. Boozy bourbon barrel fruits, not overly boozy. Ripe crystallised fruits. Nice, I do like these Fremont barleywines but I still don't quite get the reverance they are held in.

Medium amber, kinda murky. Thin head. Aroma has some bubblegum, but on the palate it'�s cleaner. Sticky sugars, figs, light orange peel. Some alcohol in the finish. Decent barley wine but could do without the wonky bubblegum phenols.
