Winter is in full force here. The first of some warming winter beers. Had on tap at Tribes Alehouse. Pours a reddish brown color with a small tan head. Aromas of caramel, dark fruit, bourbon and oak. Tastes as it smells, with the caramel having a stronger presence as the beer warms. Mouthfeel is full and pleasing. No doubt in my mind that this is a barrel aged barleywine and was billed that way at Tribes. A splendid representation of a barrel aged barleywine and well worth the steep price. Firestone Walker continues to impress me with the brewing expertise. Amazing!

Not really a brown ale anymore in anything other than color. Big, rich, sticky, and sweet, though some toasted characteristics still there. Not very hot for how strong it is! Lots of vanilla and oak, with less brandy, and even less brown ale. Quite good if you dig the barrels.
