Ruby tinted amber colour with a almost non-existant white head. Mild aroma for a barley wine with some fruit and alcohol coming through. Medium-bodied; Strong taste, but fairly sharp and pungent. Spices come through in the aftertaste, as well as some sugars from fruit. Overall, a sub-par barley wine...but good to try a 'local' barley wine, especially in Tennessee! I had this on draught at the Downtown Grill in Knoxville, Tennesse.
