It pours a clear bright brown, has a finger of tan foam, lots and lots of lacing.
Nose is full sweet caramel malt and citrus hops, almost in equal proportions. Promising smell.
Taste is slightly hoppier..err...slightly maltier...depends on the sip. I get some toffee and a light fruitiness at times. Alcohol is also fairly substantial.
Medium bodied, carbonation is on the lighter side but by no means lacking.
A very enjoyable 22 ounce bottle of a Wyoming Barleywine style Ale. Kudos.
