Blind tasting, beer #1 of 6.
2014 bottle. This was the top (or tied top) placing beer of the blind tasting. I have always wanted to drink this beer but just wasn’t getting around to it while living in Seattle. I am glad I got a chance to do so blind. My personal notes mention it was old malts, sweet but not too old. Meaning, I could tel the age was there but I wasn’t too concerned. This applies to the other old beer in the lineup as well.

2014 Bottle, poured as #1 of 6 in the wheat wine blind tasting. Pours a dark copper color with no head. Thick body. Caramel sweet malt aroma. Flavor is rye like, lingering booze. My guess was a much higher abv. Sipper barleywine for sure, but not bad at all.

Bottle, pours a hazy bronzeish orange with a tiny head. Aroma brings out caramel malts and some apples. Flavour is along the same lines, with caramel, light apples, and bready malt. Well-balanced, with a good amount of sweetness. Good stuff.
