Bottle on 11/30/2008 at the 3rd Annual Richmond Industry Gathering. Hazy caramel body with a small off-white head. Bready, toasty caramel aroma. Sweet caramel and toffee flavor. Medium full body with low carbonation.

Bottle enjoyed on 8/23/08: Judging by the other ratings, this must have been an ugly baby that turned into a hot teen. A cloudy copper orange pour with a tiny white head. Aroma of citrus and sweet, candied fruit. Subtle ba notes and that bourbon element. Tastes quite smooth and sweet. Did I mention smooth? Caramel and citrus balance with the ba notes. More light fruitiness and ever so mellow. I wish I could remember who to thank for sending this one to Idaho!

Blue Bottle Pours out a hazy amber topped with no head. Aroma of GREATNESS. Some Almond Joy aroma and wood. Tast of sweetness with the coconut and a little more of the ABV burn. Very tasty after 2 years. This would be over the top in a few more years. thanks Jake for my first Rhode Island brew.

bottle at Fort Wayne tasting - Pours murky orange with no head. It smells of oak, bourbon, and some alcohol. The flavor has oaked bourbon, caramel malt, and some light spice. It’s full bodied and the bourbon carries through to the finish. I’m going to have to disagree with some raters at our tasting. I thought it was very good.

Courtesy of Solan. Pours orange-ish copper with thin weak off white head. The aroma is mostly the barrel aged-ness and initially not much else. If I really concentrate I can just get some weak malt sweetness behind the wood and whiskey. The taste starts sweet and sticky then becomes woody and whiskey fortified. The barrel age aspect of the beer just takes too much of the flavor and hides almost all of the barleywine notes. I can just pick up faint dark fruit notes and faint caramel as just a murmur behind the whiskey. This wasn’t nearly as nice as the 2005.

Bottle Thanks to kramer17801 for this one. Pours a clear amber color with a small off-white head. Malty alcoholic caramel aroma with hints of dark fruit. Sweet malty dark fruit flavor with hints of alcohol and caramel. Sweet malty finish with a bitter aftertaste.

03-06 all tasted like barleywines. 06 is easily the weakest of the lot. Hot burn from alcohol. Some sweetness from sugar and a touch of fruit, distilled spirits, and a thin body. Maybe it needs time, or maybe it isn’t very good.

Bottle shared by Odeed; Nose of light fruit, woodineess and bourbon; Lightly hazed orange with a medium offwhite head;; flavor of caramel, apricots, spices, oak, a little alcohol, and a bit of hop bitterness for a finish. Almost as good as the 01, very underrated!

Bottled, thanks jjpm74! Cloudy amber, no head. Strong caramel aroma. Sweet and very malty with full body. Evident notes of oak, vanilla and whiskey. There’s lots crystal malt, some pears, lots of barrel character.
