A honey amber body has murky wheat tones on the edges where light comes through. Head is a rocky medium tan that jumps to three fingers and has decent retention. Considerable scattered lace is left behind. Nose is shockingly hoppy for the style with fresh cut grassy notes and hints of vanilla oak with a bit of spice. Wow for a barley wine this sure is hoppy, matter of fact if I didnt know better I'd say I was drinking a Double IPA. Hops are creamy and piney with soughy spicey malt notes tagging along. A raw peppery bitterness coats the mouth and leaves fresh hoppy feel on the taste buds. This isnt a bad beer at all but for the style it misses the mark a bit. The drinkability is hurt by this.
