That is a pretty tasty Barley Wine.
Horn Dog, is a pretty good one.
We have a local Brewery that makes a pretty decent one as well.

I am a big fan of Stone Brewing Old Guardian and Sierra Nevada Bigfoot, and Victory old horizontal is pretty good, all are American Style Barley
Wines which i guess makes them a little hoppier than English Style Barley wines.
For English Style my favorites are Anchor Old Foghorn, Weyerbacher Insanity and/or Blithering Idiot, and Alesmith old Numbskull
Well I've got a feeling I'm gonna get mine in. Retribution let the games begin.

Hard to go wrong with a Thomas Hardy's.....

Dark Wednesday
http://downingtowndish.com/2011/08/victory-dark-intrigue-rel...
Last year, on Thanksgiving eve, beer fanatics flocked to Victory Brewing Company, in hopes to score a case of the brewery first-ever bourbon
barrel-aged beer, Dark Intrigue. Only 80 cases were available for purchase, at a limit of one case per customer—an amount that quickly sold-out in
less than 45 minutes.
But, lucky for fans of last year’s batch or for folks who were unable to even grab a big bottle or two, Victory’s reproducing the beer for their 2011
season, and currently a batch of the signature Storm King Stout is waiting in oak bourbon barrels, slowly aging and picking up flavors of bourbon,
vanilla, oak and spices.
Dark Intrigue will continue to age in barrels from Jim Beam and Heaven Hill Distilleries until October, when the contents of 150 bourbon barrels will
be blended together, packaged in 750 mL corked bottles and left to condition in the bottle until November. It will be released to the public on
Wednesday, Nov. 23, a day they are calling Dark Wednesday.
“Having never delved into a bourbon barrel aged offering before, we were tentative with our beloved Storm King in terms of how much of it we subjected
to the treatment,” Victory Brewing Company President and Co-Owner Bill Covaleski said. “Our audience clearly approved of this delicious creation last
year so we have lots more in production now.”
This year, Victory expects to have 3000 cases for sale (many more than last year), which will be available at their retail shop and in limited
quantities at distributors in the region.
Dark Intrigue is made up of a variety of malts, along with American centennial, cascade and Amarillo hops. It is 9.2% alcohol by volume. For a full
report of last year’s behind-the-scenes tasting, click here. Visit victorybeer.com for more information.
