Notes from 2012. Date on bottle July 18, 2012.
Large bottle from Anoka Municipal Liquor Store.
A good fresh batch. An excellent strong beer. This brew is dark ruby brown, quite sweet tasting and malty. Soft water. There's a long bittersweet quality that's kinda boozy and it's a slow drinking beer. It might be considered thin compared to Bigfoot Barleywine but it has a really lovely taste and effect. A really strong, firm and great American beer!

Really well done.

All the characteristics of a classic barleywine.

Smell is phenomenal. It

Mouth feel is awesome. This beer works in any season. It's not so big and full as other barleywines can get sometimes. This barleywine is medium at most, but the taste is all there.

Great beer.
