A couple days ago I picked up a 6-pack of Sierra Nevada's Bigfoot Barleywine Style Ale from Riverside Wine & Imports in Kent. This limited selection seasonal ale, which is in stores now, is one of my favorites and I recommend trying it if you haven't already.Here are some comments about the ale that I took from the Sierra Nevada website:
This year marks the 25th release of Bigfoot®. Our award-winning barleywine boasts a dense, fruity bouquet, an intense flavor palate and a deep reddish-brown color. Its big maltiness is superbly balanced by a wonderfully bittersweet hoppiness.
“…Bigfoot® captures the imagination, and its character is as big as the name implies, with a huge hoppiness in its earthy aroma, a chewy palate, and a great depth of flavor.”
