    I have enjoyed

    Mother of all Storms
    Abacus
    BA Hi-Fi
    BA Abominable (I know it isn't technically a barleywine, but it tastes like one).

    "

    Also, Hangar 24's Hammerhead which is by far my favorite BBA barleywine. I had it at a BBA barleywine tasting tat I put on and enjoyed it more than King Henry. I know it's not the popular opinion that anything is better than King Henry but I was quite surprised.

    They released BA Behemoth while selling Dark Lord tickets last year. It is really good. I go back and forth between that and King Henry as my two favorites. Too bad it is so hard to find.

    Steel Toe Lunker could work. It was quite tasty on Darkness Eve.

    Definitely recommend BA Behemoth if you can get a bottle. Drank it on draft at 3 Floyds

    Sort of. Partial bourbon barrel aging and partial maple syrup bourbon barrel aging blended.

    What about some sucaba AND abacus? :stuck_out_tongue: I've heard it changed when they starting calling it sucaba.

    I've only had sucaba, but definitely my fav BA barleywine. Tons of barrel character.

    No change, they only changed the name because of a copywrite infringement. I agree that sucuba is a great brew

    I'm really jealous of the shit you all can get in the mid-west and east coast. Founders, 3 Floyd's...
    Not that we have a bad selection with Firestone, Sierra, Stone and Deschutes, but still.
