A big, rich English style Barleywine that, as its name suggests, has tints of ruby around the edges of its brown body, with a toffee, caramel, toasted pecan sweetness that is kept in balance with a smooth, alcohol warmth, and slightly fruity American hop note. This will be perfect around the fire, with a cigar, with a rich meal, or just while cozying up and relaxing with family and friends this season. It may be enjoyed right away, or allowed to age in the bottle. Vertical tastings are encouraged.

Tap @ Perennial. Pours a deep brown appearance with a light brown head. Anise, raisin, plum, caramel aroma. Very fruity (plum, dark grape, fig), somewhat sweet but well balanced, caramel, brown sugar flavor. Definitely a solid brew.

Draft at iTap chesterfield. The flavor on this thing was extraordinary. It was like juicy fruit watermelon and alcohol sweetness without astringency. Sweet, non-bitter American hops mix with the fruitiness of a barleywine in a very nice way. It really was fun to taste this beer, the alcohol is well incorporated into the beer. Its s sweet, tropical fruit sipper. Slightly thicker, viscous mouthfeel. A thick yet radiant reddish hue colored beer. Nice stuff, would drink on tap again.
