65 cL bottle (sample). Orange, white head. Aroma hops. Taste becomes _almost_ soapy from these. Malty and bitter as well. Long lasting bitterness

Bottle pours a clear light mahogany with a full sandy colored head. Lots of blocky lacing. Aromoa is the requisite hoppy citrusy bite. Flavor is bitter light malts with a cardboardy papery bitter hop note. Medium feel and moderate carbonation. Decent balance. Thanks to Jake65 for this one.

Bottle: Pours a transparent amber color with a large, foamy white head. Nice, thick lacing. Nose is a soft citrus with malty sweetness. Taste is dominated by citrus hops, floral tones, grassey, and sugary sweet malt. Dry, lingering finish.

Many thanks to footbalm for sending this beer that has spent such a long time on my wants list. If this were more readily available, it would remain there, but this is a rare gem that should be shared. This pours a deep clear amber that produces a fleeting off-white head. Big caramel dominated complex aroma. Plenty of dried fruits and caramel characteristic of a good English Barleywine. Sweet and very smooth. Delightful sipper.

A dark brown beer with a yellowish head. The aroma is sweet malty and very roasted, while the flavor is sweet malty and with an acidic note from the hard roasted malt.

Bottle, 10%. Very nice aroma, sweet, fruity, creamy, dusty, vanilla, wood.Cloudy dark brown colour, some dark floaties. Small light brown head. The flavour is quite sweet, more or less the same as the aroma, plus some coconut. Quite peppery and nice.

22 oz bottle. Just got this from Belmont Station two months ago, but the label is notched Dec ’02?? Pours with a huge head of light tan that settles very slowly into a crystal clear, medium amber beer. Soft pine and smooth malt aroma. Cookie dough and caramel. Smooth light body. Strongly bitter with just enough malt to hold this one up. A bit off balance.

Bottle poured a deep hazy, brown, w/ nridish tints. Small thin light tan head. Aroma was a wonderfull. sweet carmel, malt that you just wanted to drink in. Flavor was a very sweet malt, again with carmel and light roast notes. Quite obvious achol burn as it goes down, but you somehow don’t mind it. Low on the bittering for the style, which was fine for me. Sweet enough that it was nearly sugary or cloying. I suppose a bit unbalanced tchnically, but delicious none the less. Palate was a very soft cabonation, and a very smooth slick heavy feel. Very yummy, and underrated. Thanks, Buck Dich

A murky red-brown beer with a thin beige head. The aroma is sweet with a very powerful alcohol note, but also strong notes of over ripe fruits, malt, caramel, and cinnamon. The flavor is very sweet malty with lots of over ripe fruits, and caramel, leading to a nice hoppy end, with the alcohol burning the throat. I believe this will give You the warmth even in Alaska. The mouthfeel is very thick - I’ll describe it as an alcohol soup - how ever that’ll work, I have no idea?
