A beautiful malty aroma, with a dark ruby red appearance. Not a big head to it but it laced nicely as I drank the beer. A great full bodied feel that was very warming. The taste was very sweet in the beginning and it rounded at the end with a great hoppiness. The brewery rep said it was a imperial brown, but it smelled, looked, and tasted like a barley wine to me. This should keep nice for a couple of years, but it's enjoyable now. Bottle #1888 of 2007 is now history.

Poured into a beautiful copper color with a nice couple inch head. Strong aroma of raisins and plums. Very fruity tasting, more like a port. It didn't taste as malty as I was expecting, but the strong alcohol was warming and perfect for the very cold evening. As it warmed the hops started to come forward in aroma and taste. I love this beer and will look for it again.

Ist time i did not let it get to room temperature for a couple of hours. I was at the local capital ale house and i didn't have the time to wait. i did not really enjoy it the first time. I took one home and i followed the instructions. Cork had a vinegary aroma and the beer had no head at all. Thin mouthfeel and the appearance was a dark ruby red color. i'm enjoying the flavor. Very wine like and the alcohol is still very present. A nice sipping beer. Was better than i thought for its age. Bottled in 1996. It's definitely getting better as it warms
