22 ounce bottle into snifter, late 2013 bottling. Pours slightly hazy deep orange copper color with a small fairly dense light khaki head with good retention, that reduces to a thin lace cap that lingers. Light spotty soapy lacing clings around the glass, with some light streaming carbonation. Aromas of raisin, caramel, grapefruit, orange zest, toast, toffee, brown sugar, brown bread, floral, grass, and toasted earthiness. Very nice aromas with good balance and complexity of dark/toasted malt and light-moderate citrus hop notes; with good strength. Taste of raisin, caramel, toast, toffee, grapefruit, orange zest, brown sugar, brown bread, floral, grass, slight pine, and floral/toasted earthiness. Light floral/pine bitterness on the finish; with lingering notes of raisin, caramel, toast, toffee, brown sugar, brown bread, grapefruit, orange zest, floral, grass, and toasted earthiness on the finish for a while. Very nice complexity and robustness of dark/bready malt and light-moderate citrus hop flavors; with a good malt/bitterness balance and zero cloying sweetness after the finish. Light-medium carbonation and medium-full bodied; with a smooth, moderately creamy, and lightly slick mouthfeel that is nice. Alcohol is well hidden with only a slight warming present after the finish. Overall this is a very nice English barleywine. All around good balance and complexity of dark/bready malt and light-moderate citrus hop flavors; and very smooth to sip on for the big ABV. A very enjoyable offering.

Draught at St. Augustine’s, Vancouver
10oz
Amber color, clean, with small creamy head. The aroma is strong, fruity, with some peach, mango, oranges. Good body strength, round mouthfeel; the malt flavor is quite anonymous, moderately sweet, with a nice fruit touch and strong bitterness, ending with soft resins. Don’t expect a piney DIPA.
An American sweet interpretation of Belgian Ales with the hopping of a DIPA.
Good powerful and clean beer, but unemotional.

22oz bomber courtesy of riversideAK, thanks Alex! It pours with a murky copper body that has gold hues and supports a tan head of foam. The aroma offers up hoppy pine, floral and citrus hops along with thick malty sweetness laced with a light amount of fruity esters and booze. The taste is pretty thick and rich with malt sweetness, resiny pine and grapefruit flowing around into floral hops as well as a touch of soap and sweet fruity esters. This is big and sweet and hoppy and interesting. It has enough sweetness and that touch of fruity esters that it seems like it wants to be an English style barleywine but the resiny bitter hops get in the way. The other way around it seems the sweetness and esters get in the way of this being a solid American style barleywine. Interesting

Pours clear amber with a tall white head. Juicy malt and citrus hop aroma. The flavor is on the sweet side, typical of many IIPAs.

Dark amber color. Fairly sweet , huge caramel and candy apple nose. Very rich with cherries. Mouth is too sweet, very full bodied, but not balanced. Sweet finish. Nice nose that just goes down hill from there .

650mL bottle, pours a hazy golden orange with a small white head. Aroma brings out Belgian yeast, spicy notes, apples, and floral notes. Flavour is very fruity, with lighter stone fruits, floral notes, Belgian yeast, and apples. Lightly sweet, well-balanced and certainly on the edge of a tripel and a light quad. Very solid stuff.

deep amber color. Bourbon, cherries, wood candy cane, sweet malty vanilla. Lots if subtle flavor, alcohol so well hidden. Extremely smooth butterscotch. Fantastic winter warmer. Lingering oak and vanilla finish

Tap at Dig. Big, round, estery fruit nose; peach, melon, oranges. Sweet bouquet. Slightly cloudy golden color. Sweet and estery flavor, very fruity and a bit cloying. Nice fruit, but this is way too sweet.
