Fantastic. Even more depth and lovely maltiness than Arrogant Bastard.

Yes. So much flavor. Doesn't have the rick, thick, bite of a RIS but so good. Lots of barrel character. Vanilla in the aroma, chocolate in the flavor. No need to buy Uncle Jacob's Stout anymore.

Drank a bottle with a dessert consisting of butterscotch pudding and homemade shortbread. Really brought out the "American" style. Hops were much more prevalent when consumed with sweeter foods. Still amazing every time.

Best just below room temperature.

Super roast, burnt flavor but not coffee-ish. Velvety mouthfeel. It's fine but I'd rather have a Guinness.

Keep this one chilled. It's better when refrigerator cold.
Drank 12 oz of Bigfoot by Sierra Nevada Brewing Co. (2013-12-10)January 22nd, 2016
2016-01-22
So, so different than the first bottle I drank 9? months ago. No more oily mouthfeel. Very hoppy for a barleywine. Citrusy aroma and lots of citrus hops in the flavor (Sierra Nevada after all...) .Clove and similar spices in the aftertaste. Shared a surprising amount of flavors with the 6-month old 90 minute IPA I had yesterday. Not as sweet as I expect from a barleywine, definitely reminds me of a full-bodied malty IPA.

Drank 12 oz of 90 Minute IPA by Dogfish Head Craft Brewery (2015-07-14)January 21st, 2016
2016-07-27
Ugh, what was I thinking? Failed experiment, unless something dramatic happens with the other 90 minute IPAs I'm sitting on. I don't know what happened with my palate that night that I raved about the 6 month old bottle, but this is in barleywine territory at 1 year. But not a good barleywine. Sweet and bitter, when cold. Not entirely unpleasant but no longer an IPA. I hope the other vintages still pass as IPAs.

So, so good. Better at 6 months old than fresh. Citrusy aroma, got some papaya flavor.
