First brewed at the Rubicon in December 1988. This wonderful ale was inspired by the late Jim Pell. While attempting a batch of home brew he came up with a summer wheat ale that was over 10% abv...WHEW! This was a big mistake for him, but one we are proud to continue for your enjoyment.

wow, gotta disagree on the goodness of this one. looks like a typical bw, smells on the sweet side, with some wheat and cool malts in there as well. not very balanced, but quite tasty. the body is just great. thick and full without being cloying. flavor is a tiny bit hot, sweet, and complex, lots of different sweets here. good stuff. i'd buy in a bottle.

This barley wine pours a medium brown color from a bottle from the brewery. Small to no head present. Aroma is very sweet, candy sugar, brown sugar, sweet and more sweet. Touch of alcohol. A medium bodied barleywine. Malts are very sweet, maybe maple syrup sweet to pour over your pancakes sweet. Lots of caramel malt flavors. The 10% alcohol is very noticeable. Very sweet, but very smooth. A little of this one will go a LONGGGG way. Maybe a year or so of bottle aging might help. Mouthfeel is full. Finish is clean and smooth. Aftertaste is sweet.
