    Oh man this is good this is real this is nice and tight...Dipsea poured an easy way and opened up my senses. Slow bubbles and a filmy head with a rich body and full feel. Smooth is an understatement and satisfying doesn't do it justice. The barrel aspect is subdued and there was a nice funky twang that opened up my eyes. Beautiful

    Tigers love pepper... they hate cinnamon. .. Pours a dark bark brown .. lacing is quite good .. . smooth for being a 10% bourbon brew, a bomber wouldn't last long for most people .. . light barrel, molasses, and light chocolate vanilla flavours .. . pick this up if you see it, then purchase it from the store, then go home and chill it, then drink it...

    Tasted during the Nor Cal Beer Geek Tasting on 3/11/2009. This barleywine pours a cloudy deep amber brown color from a 22oz bottle. Small to medium sized white foamy head. The aroma is bourbon, oak, vanilla and caramel malts. A full-bodied barleywine. The malts are caramel, fruity and sweet. The hops are earthy. Full flavored barrel aged beer, lots of oak, vanilla an bourbon flavors. Very smooth taste. Very small amount of carbonation is this one, but it doesn’t seem to affect the taste much. Mouthfeel is full and round. Finish is clean and smooth. Aftertaste is sweet and bourbonish.
