Bottle from Dawson’s while in Maryland. First Anniversary beer so I assume this is Batch 1 of this brew. Hand numbered 289/500. Pours hay dark amber colored with a creamy bubbly off white head. Ara of honey, toffee, hard candies, vanilla and bourbon, a bit of lemon peel, oak, smells very sweet. Flavor follows very sweet with honey, toffee, vanilla, bourbon, light citrus, caramel. Rich body but not super heavy, medium carbonation. While I prefer a bit more rich caramel malt and oak, this is a nice BA barleywine that’s worth grabbing if you see it.

Draft at Meridian Pint. Clear golden color, off white head. Aroma of vanilla, butterscotch. Taste is smooth rich caramel and vanilla, tannins at the finish.
