Big Foot - Sierra Nevada

APPEARANCE: (5) Very thick dense foam. Beautiful semi dark, close to reddish color.

AROMA: (5) Piny rich hops aroma with background citrus notes.

TASTE: (5) Incredible rich flavor. First a bitterness shock, then a thick mouthful of malt and hops in it's best combination. Very complex beer with lots of aroma hops and a great full flavor. More of a hoppy dry taste than equivalent English versions of Barley Vine

EXTRA: (4) A surprisingly distinctive Barley Wine Style Ale. This could be easily identified in a blind test because of its unique flavor. It has its base in English Barley Vine but goes the extra mile to be a unique beer.
