Burnt Hickory Killdozer: 22

Taste: 8  Finish: 7  Visual: 4  Aroma: 3
Total: 22

Small batch brew from my brother's brewery in Georgia! It's listed as a barley wine ale. I've maybe had one barley wine in my life. So this will be a learning experience. Deep amber color. Slight head. A very sweet, malty aroma. The taste is very sweet. Sugary and syrupy. In the back is some caramel. Lots of dark fruit like plums and cherries. Well, if they were soaked in alcohol! What a kick! This clocks in at ~12% so it's a sipping brew for sure. Definitely something to warm you up over a long night. Very enjoyable.
