Sierra Nevada Bigfoot Barleywine Style Ale
2004. Awesome appearance.. just something about that color. I knew it would be hoppy, but it still shocked me at first. The hop flavor is massive, but I imagine over time the hoppiness would mellow out a bit. There is definitely a strong malt backbone, but it is covered up by the hops. The mouthfeel is really thick, and there is only a slight alcohol burn. It is really easy to drink considering how massive of a beer it is. I'll pick up a bottle and let it age a bit and see if i have more to say about it.
