Oak Aged Widdershins
American Barleywine
8.80% ABV
Greg score: 88/100
Greg says: Had this out of a 22 oz bottle. I actually had the 2007 and I had let it sit for about 6 months before opening it. Colors were deep caramel. And it left some decent lacing. You can definitely find the oak in the aroma as well as some hops. Taste is some caramel with a lot of oak. You definitely know its oak aged. But that was a good thing, IMO. It was very sweet as well. If you can find a bottle, I recommend it for the Barleywine fans out there.
My favorite brewery is Left Hand. I think they have grown a lot since this post. Their beers are available here in Nebraska.
