    Sucaba is their take on an English barleywine aged in American bourbon barrels. It's a remake of Abacus which was the 2011 English barleywine they did. Though barleywine styles usually run on the sweeter side(most anyway), sounds like yours was way out in left field. Barleywine ages very well but it would take a looooong time to tame that much sweetness. If the beer shop has parabola, I highly reccommend that. A small batch almost double imperial stout. If you like imperial stout this is the way to go. If you can't find any let me know, Firestone is about a hair under 2 hours from me.

    I think they did, I didn't get it but I need to go back and see. Thing is on the sucaba is that it was way off the chart. I love barleywines, in fact one of my fav's is from Rogue. I go to newport quite often and every time they are out of them to buy. You can still get one off tap, but I wanted to get some bottles to store. However our Saturday/Sunday markets downtown have a tent from Rogue and I get a bottle every time I'm down there. Have two so far! Just noticed they were down there a couple of weeks ago and that they have it there at times. The guy is stingy as all get out and it's not cheap, 16 bucks for a pint.

    16 a pint, jeezus!. Had Sierra Nevada Bigfoot or their anniversary barleywines? Other ones I've had that I love are stone old Gaurdian, shipyard and Avery, too bad more breweries don't make them...

    Have you had anything from the Great Divide brewery Vinny? They make an oak aged imperial stout that I was increasingly impressed with as it neared room temp. Anyway, they also make a barley wine, haven't tried it yet.
