Poured from a 16 oz can dated May 12, 2023. Aroma is malt forward with lots of caramel, toffee and toasted bread notes. Hints of treacle and some light burnt sugar notes. Light fruit notes of raisin, cherry and plum. Medium light alcohol notes. Light herbal, woody hop notes with a touch of citrus. Pours a dark brown with auburn hues on the edges with a large, thick, pillowy, dark tan head that recedes slowly to a small, creamy film that lingers. Fairly high lacing and long legs. Flavor is fairly sweet with lots of caramel and toffee layers as well as quite a bit of toasted bread and burnt sugar. Some light nuttiness and treacle with hints of roast. Moderately high to high bitterness and medium light alcohol notes. Light cherry, raisin and plum notes. Moderate woody, herbal hop notes with a touch of citrus character. Mouthfeel is medium full bodied with medium carbonation. Low, but present astringency and medium low alcohol warmth. Overall, a solid American barleywine that definitely skews towards the old school character - fairly bitter, quite a bit of hoo flavor and some hop aroma. Malt notes are a bit darker and richer than a traditional American style old school barleywine.

Can. Bronze beer with a tan head. Dark fruit and rich malt aroma. Caramel and dark fruit flavor with rich malt and grapefruit. Medium-plus bodied. Caramel and dark fruit linger with rich malt and light grapefruit.

Can thanks to Rainer. Pours copper with small beige head that lasts. The aroma is dark fruit, toffee, wood. Slick body, toffee, leather, wood, boozy finish, very good.
