Purchased a four pack of this and took home, the final can was poured into a snifter and here are my observations:
Appearance: dark amber/maybe dark brown color with a quarter finger of off-white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: caramel/toffee notes up front, light whiffs of some dark fruits, a touch of toasted nuts and a light tone of sherry
Flavor: blends the prior noted aromas to a malty sweet and nutty tone; finishes nutty and caramel-like
Texture: medium bodied, a sure sipper; some smoothness but also a little bit leathery and dry
Overall: not a bad barleywine and I drank the four pack over the course of six months wondering if something might change but nothing ever did. It was the same throughout.

On tap at the source shared with Paul Lightly hazy deep golden bordering on amber with a thin off white head that quickly dissipates. Caramel and bready maltiness moderate earthy hops puckering astringency.
