From a hand bottled 12 oz bottle that was capped back in January. Sweet aroma. Taste is strong, sweet and over the top. Like most other barley wines but has a unique presence all its own. Hazy yellow and a tad on the viscous side. No carbonation. What else can be said but on style. Lots of alky on the finish. Difficult for a lager lover. A little warm going down. Hand bottling did not seem to affect this brew at all.

Sampled on draft at the brewery this beer poured a hazy medium brown color with a small dark tan head. The aroma was sweetish, hoppy and tangy with grapefruit and a bit of alcohol showing through. The flavor was sweet, tangy and tart with spritzy fruity and piney hops and a long bitter fruity hop finish. Very thick. Very nice.
