    Take a bottle and age it in a cool part of your basement for a few months. Barleywines are one of the few beers that benefit from some cellaring.

    I believe it was 9.6 or 9.7%

    Definitely not a session beer. (At least not for the likes of me.)

    BeerAdvocate, fwiw, rates it as "exceptional".

    If you find this one to your liking, try a Deschutes Brewing Pinedrops IPA for comparison.
