Beer Review #62: Sierra Nevada Bigfoot Barleywine Ale (2012)

Style: Barleywine

Menu description: Caramel malts, piney hops, dark fruit.

ABV: 9.6%

Tasting notes: A bitter taste like you’d expect from a darker beer, but still characteristic of a pale ale. Quality!

Rating: 4/5

Beer Review #39: Goose Island Beer Grand Prestige Vatgerijpt

Style: Barleywine

ABV: 11.3%

My thoughts: This smells like Grim Bergen! It actually tastes a lot like Grim Bergen as well. Seriously this is a Grim Bergen clone, with a slightly higher ABV. It may have a bit rougher aftertaste. If you like Grim Bergen and want to get drunk faster, this is the way to go.

Rating: 4.5/5

Brewery website: Goose Island Beer Co.
