Pours a very dark crimson with a very nice sized head. Nice lacing down the glass.
Plenty of hops in the nose, some butterscotch and sweetness to be found as well.
Full body, fairly smooth. Plenty of bitter hops blend with dark fruits and some butterscotch sweetness. Suggestions of pine com through in the end and a sweet red-wine like flavor come in the finish. Alcohol is well hidden in the taste, but the feeling shows up as the bomber drains.
A very fine barleywine, very Old Horizontal like, but just my opinion. Nice to have Great Divide in Georgia. This will have a regular place in my fridge come winter.

First time trying it having a 2012, 6 months old, next to a 2010. A sipper with only a few months on it, still has a significant hop profile, but once the IBU's diminish over time this stuff goes down real easy. Grab a few bottles and hide them for a few years. Great brew, cheers!
