Red amber ale with a dissipating white head. Sweet resinous aroma with light hops, woody notes. Rich smooth and sweet malts balancing a heavy handed hop, brutal but efficient. Medium bodied beginner’s barley wine. On tap at Kelly Cole’s Improper in Syracuse, NY, on February 4, 2006. 7-3-8-3-13 [BR][BR] Bottle 2007. A clear deep reddish amber ale with a thick dissipating burned coffee head. A sweet aroma with metallic wrought iron, cinnamon hearts, and alcohol. In mouth, a rather unidimensional barley wine with loads of alcohol, a bit of aniseed, oily mouth feel, sustained hops. Good bw Thanks Karl. 8-4-7-3-14

Pours a nice orange with a nice head that diminishes quickly. Aroma is sweet. Citrus also hits the nose along with hops. Flavor is hops with citrus and almost seems like some apple. An interesting IPA. I think ill have to have a couple more before i decide on this one.

Clear golden amber color with a medium thin white head that lasts almost the entire glass. Thin patches of lacing. Aroma of fresh hops and citrus with a little sweet honey. Light-bodied and bubbly with grassy hops and some malt flavoring. The finish is short and fairly bitter but ultimately a little watery. Slightly above average all around.

Excellent. This has the full body and appearanceof an American imperial stout. The aroma reminds me of Young’s chocolate but a little better than that. Rich flavor that includes a lot of chocolate and some coffee. Very rich, chocolatey, and outstanding.
